The Arizona Cardinals have signed Scooby Wright III to their 53-man roster, reports ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The former Arizona Wildcats linebacker spent the preseason with the Cardinals, where he tallied 18 tackles and forced a fumble in five games, including two starts.
Wright was cut by the Cardinals last week and signed with their practice squad, but starting $LB Deone Bucannon re-injured his ankle in practice this week, opening a spot for Wright on the active roster.
Wright, a seventh-round pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2016, has appeared in three career NFL games, all with Arizona.
