Cardinals Re-Sign Veteran LB Philip Wheeler, Waive LB Scooby Wright

The Arizona Cardinals announced Monday that they’ve re-signed LB Philip Wheeler and placed LB Scooby Wright on waivers.

Wheeler, 32, is a former third-round pick of the Colts back in 2008. He spent four years in Indianapolis before signing on with the Raiders as a free agent in 2012.

Wheeler lasted just one year in Oakland before he caught on with the Dolphins after he was cut loose. The Falcons elected to sign him to a contract during the season in 2015.

The Cardinals signed him to a contract back in July and he managed to make the 53-man roster coming out of the preseason before he was cut loose last week.
