The Arizona Cardinals’ rough stretch got a little longer this week, and the roster churn has already started.
After the loss to the New York Giants, the team lost Paris Johnson Jr. for the season and then moved quickly to reshape the roster heading into the next week and beyond. On Tuesday, Arizona announced a set of transactions that touched both the active roster and the practice squad.
Teagan Quitoriano was signed to the active roster from the practice squad, while Kenny Yeboah was brought back to the practice squad. The Cardinals also added offensive lineman Austin Deculus and safety Mark Perry to the practice squad.
To make room, the team placed Johnson and tight end Hunter Long on injured reserve. Arizona also released cornerback D’Shawn Jamison and offensive lineman Vershon Lee from the practice squad.
The moves were made at the Dignity Health Arizona Cardinals Training Center in Tempe, Arizona.
Deculus arrives with the most NFL mileage of the newcomers. The 6-5, 330-pound lineman has played in 26 career games with six starts, split between the Chargers in 2025 and the Texans from 2022-24.
He appeared in 13 games with Los Angeles last season, including five starts, after arriving in a trade from Houston. The 27-year-old was drafted by the Texans in the sixth round, 205th overall, in 2022 out of LSU.
He spent the preseason with the Titans.
Perry comes in after spending the preseason with Green Bay. The 6-0, 211-pound defensive back has also spent time on the practice squads of the Texans, Patriots and Packers. He entered the league with Miami in 2024 as an undrafted rookie free agent from TCU.
At TCU, Perry played five seasons and appeared in 52 games. He finished his college career with 233 tackles, including 166 solo stops, along with 15.5 tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks, three interceptions, 13 passes defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
Quitoriano will wear No. 47, Deculus No.
76, Perry No. 37 and Yeboah No. 45.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Trade Talk Is Putting Cardinals Fans On Edge
Rumors around Marvin Harrison Jr. have quickly become the kind that can rattle a fan base, especially when a player with his profile is involved. For Cardinals supporters, the noise is coming from outside the building, with Indianapolis reportedly showing interest and a wider list of suitors also said to be monitoring the situation, including the Chiefs, Raiders, Bills, Giants and Texans.
The Colts interest carries extra intrigue because their ability to put together a deal is constrained by limited draft capital after past trades, which makes any real movement harder to engineer. Even so, the fact that Harrisons name is circulating at all is enough to keep Arizona followers on edge, and it leaves one of the leagues most closely watched wideout stories hanging in a tense spot.

Cardinals Catch Lions Defense At A Tense Time
A rough afternoon in Carolina only added to the scrutiny around the Lions, and head coach Dan Campbell wasted little time addressing where things stand on defense. He confirmed that Kelvin Sheppard will stay on as defensive coordinator, while also making clear the unit is still a work in progress and that the staff is looking for ways to give other players a chance to help improve the performance.
For the Cardinals, that makes this a familiar kind of opponent-facing wrinkle to monitor, especially when a contender is trying to steady itself without overreacting to one bad result. Campbells message was less about a quick fix than a broader standard, with mediocrity off the table and improvement needed across every phase, which leaves Detroit carrying both the urgency and the uncertainty into the next stretch.

Jeremiyah Love's Hot Start Comes With One Big Cardinals Question
Dane Brugler of The Athletic put together an early 2026 NFL All-Rookie Team after the first four games of the season, and it was enough to get Arizona rookie running back Jeremiyah Love some well-earned attention. Love was listed as the starting running back on the team, a nod to the way he has opened his pro career by leading all rookies in rushing yards and receptions out of the backfield.
For the Cardinals, the praise is encouraging but still comes with a reminder of how quickly these early-season judgments can shift. Bruglers list is built on a small sample, and Loves start has certainly been loud, but the bigger question is how long he can keep this pace going once defenses adjust and the season settles into its grind.
