The Arizona Cardinals kept building out their practice squad Tuesday, adding a defensive lineman and an offensive lineman after a busy day of roster churn.
The latest names in the mix are Jared Harrison-Hunte and Vershon Lee, both of whom were cut loose by other teams before landing in Arizona. Harrison-Hunte comes over from the Carolina Panthers, while Lee arrives after being waived by the Minnesota Vikings.
Harrison-Hunte spent last season moving between Carolina’s practice squad and active roster in 2025 as an undrafted rookie from Miami, though he never got into a game. He’s listed at 6-4 and 311 pounds. The Cardinals also got a look at him in the Hall of Fame Game, where he recorded a sack, a tackle, a tackle for loss and a quarterback hit.
Lee’s path was a little different. The South Carolina product joined the Vikings as a rookie free agent last year, then spent time shuttling between their active roster and practice squad.
He appeared in one game and logged four snaps on special teams. He’s a 6-4, 318-pound guard.
Arizona’s two additions came one day after the team announced it was bringing back 14 players it had previously cut, all of them to the practice squad. The Cardinals now have one open spot left on the unit.

Steelers Cut Just Drew Immediate Interest From Another Team
The Cardinals added some familiar depth to the secondary, signing cornerback D'Shawn Jamison to the practice squad after he worked out for the team. Jamison had just been waived by the Steelers during final roster cuts and arrives with experience from both Pittsburgh and Carolina, where his value has largely come on special teams.
Arizonas cornerback room has been stretched a bit, with five players on the active roster and one starter currently injured. That made the workout worth watching, and Jamisons quick landing spot suggests the Cardinals were looking for someone who could help right away while adding another layer of insurance to a thin position group.

Cardinals Opener Picture Is Shifting As Key Roster Decisions Take Shape
The Cardinals opener picture is starting to come into focus as Mike LaFleur sorted through a few of the roster issues hanging over camp. Rookie running back Jeremiyah Love is making steady progress from a high-ankle sprain, and the team is still sorting out Garrett Williams status before the season opener, two developments that keep the secondary and backfield in the spotlight as the start of the year approaches.
LaFleur also said James Conner was moved to injured reserve to give him more time to recover, a decision that underscores how carefully the Cardinals are managing the early part of the season. Across the league, Lions GM Brad Holmes offered a similar update on Isiah Pacheco, saying the back injury has been improving without attaching a timetable, a reminder that a lot of teams are heading toward opening day with key pieces still in flux.

Cardinals Face A Week 1 O-Line Question They Cant Ignore
The Cardinals have spent most of August trying to settle the details along their offensive line, and Isaiah Adams knee injury has now pushed one of the biggest questions right to the front. Adams, the projected starter at right guard, got hurt before a preseason game, leaving his status for Week 1 against the Chargers up in the air at a spot where continuity matters and the margin for error is thin.
Mike LaFleur said Adams is progressing and doing well, but next weeks practice work will be the real test of whether he is ready to go. In the meantime, Jon Gaines has stepped in at right guard, and Arizonas options beyond him are limited because of other injuries, which makes this one of those early-season situations the Cardinals cannot afford to let drift too long.
