The Cardinals’ own website predicted before training camp that veteran Devon Kennard was a \u201clock\u201d to make the roster. But even a strong training camp and a spot atop the depth chart at one of the outside linebacker spots couldn’t win him a job.<\/p>\n

The Cardinals are cutting Kennard, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports.<\/p>\n

The team drafted Myjai Sanders and Jesse Luketa in the third round this spring. Sanders is listed as the backup to Kennard with Luketa the third-stringer. So obviously the Cardinals saw enough from the rookies to be confident they could move on from Kennard. <\/p>\n

Kennard agreed to a share cut in March to remain in Arizona.<\/p>\n

Kennard had a non-guaranteed base salary of $6.75 million with $250,000 available in per-game roster bonuses. His original cap hit was just over $9.083 million.<\/p>\n

He played 15 games and started three times for the Cardinals last year and had 24 tackles and a fumble recovery.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
