According to Matt Barrows of The Athletic, the Arizona Cardinals have signed defensive back Qwuantrezz Knight off the San Francisco 49ers practice squad. The move comes as the Cardinals place safety Budda Baker on injured reserve.
"Arizona was very interested in Knight after he was part of SF's cuts to get down to 53 players last month," Barrows noted in a tweet.
The Cardinals, who put S Budda Baker on IR today, signed S Qwuantrezz Knight off the 49ers' practice squad. Arizona was very interested in Knight after he was part of SF's cuts to get down to 53 players last month.
San Francisco initially signed Knight as an undrafted free agent out of UCLA in 2022. He had the second-highest coverage grade of all 49ers defensive backs during the preseason (81.4 compared to A.J. Parker's 85.9).
