Report: Free agent LB Ernie Sims pays visit to Arizona Cardinals

May 30, 2014, 3:27 PM | Updated: 4:24 pm

The Arizona Cardinals are always looking for roster help.

That search is exacerbated by Friday’s news that linebacker Daryl Washington is facing a season-long suspension in 2014.

According to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com, the Cardinals are looking for another inside linebacker, and they’ve brought in free agent Ernie Sims for a visit.

Sims, 29, was a first-round pick of the Detroit Lions out of Florida State in 2006. He spent four years in Detroit before moving on to Philadelphia in 2010, Indianapolis in 2011 and Dallas for the last two seasons. With the Cowboys, Sims played in 22 games, starting 12 and registering 86 total tackles.
