The Arizona Cardinals have reached an agreement with free agent linebacker Paris Lenon.
Adam Schefter of ESPN is reporting that it’s a three-year deal.
Linebacker was a big need for the Cardinals, who lost starter Karlos Dansby to the Miami Dolphins. Arizona had free agent linebacker Larry Foote in for a visit, but after Foote signed with the Steelers, the Cardinals moved quickly to add Lenon.
Lenon played 15 games for the St. Louis Rams last year, starting 10. Prior to that he started all 48 games from 2006 to 2008 for the Detroit Lions, and spent four years, mostly as a backup, for the Green Bay Packers from 2002 to 2005.
