The Arizona Cardinals announced they have elevated linebacker Thurston Armbrister from the practice squad to the active roster on Friday.
In addition, the team also re-signed quarterback Charles Kanoff to the practice squad.
Armbrister has spent time with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Detroit Lions and New York Giants since entering the league as an undrafted free agent out of Miami in 2015.
In two seasons with the Jaguars and Lions (30 games), the linebacker recorded 29 tackles and a pass defensed.

An undrafted free agent, Kanoff appeared in all four preseason games, passing for 178 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions on a team-high 36 pass attempts.
At Princeton, he threw for 7,510 yards and 43 touchdowns. Kanoff was named the Ivy League Offensive Player of the Year in 2017.
