Cardinals Lose Chase Bisontis, 2 Others to IR; Sign 3 New Players

The Arizona Cardinals officially placed second-round pick Chase Bisontis on injured reserve today.

Bisontis suffered a knee injury against the Las Vegas Raiders this past week in preseason play. The right guard is likely to miss most of the 2026 season, if not all. Arizona is not expected to make a signing for his replacement.

The Cardinals also placed tight end Jameson Geers and linebacker Austin Keys on injured reserve, as officially announced by the team on Saturday.

Arizona still has Tip Reiman, Garrett Williams and Josh Sweat on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list while Joey Blount, Kenny Yeboah and Kaleb Proctor are on injured reserve.

To supplement the Cardinals' losses, Arizona signed tight end Baylor Cupp, defensive lineman Keveion’ta Spears and running back Tre Stewart.
