Overview
- The Arizona Cardinals were awarded running back Evan Hull and defensive tackle Cam Horsley via waiver claims Monday evening, according to the NFL transaction report and multiple outlets.
- To clear roster space for the two additions, the team released wide receiver Tejhaun Palmer and defensive tackle Coziah Izzard.
- Hull joins Arizona after being waived by the Houston Texans following their re-signing of Mario Edwards Jr., and he has spent time with the Colts, Steelers and Saints since being drafted in 2023.
- The Hull claim is notable because it increases competition in a backfield where Trey Benson missed a recent practice and backs Jeremiyah Love, Tyler Allgeier and James Conner currently lead the rotation.
- Waiver activity like this is routine in August as teams shape their 53-man rosters, and these additions give the Cardinals low-cost depth and special-teams options to evaluate in practices and preseason games.
