LB Devon Kennard signing with Ravens’ practice squad
The Arizona Cardinals released linebacker Devon Kennard Saturday in a movement to play their young edge defenders. Kennard will not be back with the Cardinals, it would appear.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, he will sign with the practice squad of the Baltimore Ravens.
Kennard spent nearly two and a half seasons with the Cardinals after signing a three-year, $20 million contract.
While he did not produce as expected, he was well respected by teammates and coaches.
“D.K has been awesome—another guy (that’s a) tremendous leader, person— all those things,” Kliff Kingsbury said of Kennard on Monday. “A great player for us and he had some opportunities too that I think better for him as we developed these young guys. It was a deal that it was just time, but we couldn’t be more appreciative of that guy and what he brought to us.”
