Hawks sign former first-round pick Keon Johnson
The Arizona Cardinals have placed cornerback Will Johnson on injured reserve following a neck injury he sustained during Sunday's 31-7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Head coach Mike LaFleur expressed concern during a Wednesday press conference, stating that the team is not prepared to bring Johnson back from injury. Instead, they have signed cornerback Star Thomas V from their practice squad to fill the void left by Johnson's absence.
Thomas, who has not played since 2024 due to a torn ACL, will join rookies Garrett Williams and Max Melton on the Cardinals' roster. Max Melton, who has a toe injury, did not practice on Wednesday, leaving the defense with Denzel Burke, Williams, Thomas, Kei Trel Clark and Kalen King to rely on.
