Dwight Freeney officially signs with Arizona Cardinals, expected to play 15-20 snaps

The Arizona Cardinals officially announced the signing of veteran pass rusher Dwight Freeney on Tuesday. Linebacker Kenny Demens was placed on injured reserve, ending his season, to make room on the roster. Now, based on Kent Somers great reporting skills and keen observations, the signing happened Monday, as he and other reported, but the move was announced on Tuesday.

What will his role be?

The easy answer is he will rush the passer, but he win't play a prominent role.

Head coach Bruce Arians was on SiriusXM NFL Radio, as he does every Tuesday, and said he would play 15-20 snaps, basically only in nickel and dime situations.
