Chiefs trade Marcus Cooper to Arizona Cardinals

Roster moves are happening in a flurry today and tomorrow as teams cut down to 53 players. We have a notable move that impacts the NFC West, sort of. The Kansas City Chiefs announced that they have traded cornerback Marcus Cooper to the Arizona Cardinals for an undisclosed draft pick.

Cooper was a one-time 49ers fan favorite. The 49ers drafted him with a seventh round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, and he had a really solid training camp. The 49ers waived him as part of final roster cuts, hoping to slip him to the practice squad. The Chiefs claimed Cooper, and an injury moved him up the depth chart.
