The Arizona Cardinals have added another cornerback to the offseason roster. The team announced that it was awarded a waiver claim on cornerback Kyler McMichael, recently released by the Buffalo Bills.
McMichael is listed at 6-foot and 208 pounds. He spent last season Bills’ practice squad after initially signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted rookie free agent.
Collegiately, he played one season for Clemson in 2018, where he was teammates with Cardinals linebacker Isaiah Simmons, and transferred to North Carolina for his final three seasons.
In 21 games with North Carolina, he had 44 tackles, a tackle for loss, an interception and eight pass breakups.
To make room for McMichael on the roster, the Cardinals released undrafted rookie linebacker Mavin Pierre.
McMichael is the third cornerback added to the roster this week. They signed Dylan Mabin and Bobby Price earlier in the week.
