BJ Ojulari cut as Cardinals lock in initial 53-man roster

The Arizona Cardinals’ initial 53-man roster is set following multiple cuts and a couple trades.

Among the most notable cuts were pass rusher BJ Ojulari and cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting.

Tight end Tip Reiman was also transferred to the reserve/physically unable to perform list. He’ll have to miss at least four weeks before returning to action.

Running back James Conner will also be held for at least the first four weeks after landing on injured reserve with a designation to return. The same goes for defensive lineman Zach Carter.

Arizona waived/injured safety Josh Minkins, too.
