Former Bengals Linebacker Akeem Davis-Gaither Signing With Arizona Cardinals

CINCINNATI — A former Bengals linebacker is headed out west.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Akeem Davis-Gaither is signing a two-year, $11 million deal with the Cardinals.

The solid backup played a few meaningful roles for Cincinnati over the past five seasons (over 1,300 special teams snaps in his career) and is seemingly getting replaced by Oren Burks after the former Eagles linebacker signed with Cincinnati on Monday.

ADG is coming off of a career-high seven starts last season with more career-bests in tackles (82) and pass breakups (four).
