Dwight Freeney is back.
NFL Media's Rand Getlin reported Monday that the free-agent pass rusher will sign a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals, per a source briefed on the move.
The 35-year-old end and outside linebacker became a priority for Arizona after the Cardinals saw starting outside linebacker Alex Okafor (right calf) and backup linebacker Kenny Demens (left knee) go down in Sunday's 42-17 win over the Lions. Getlin cited a source to report that Okafor is expected to miss two to four weeks with the injury.
