The Arizona Cardinals have waived offensive lineman Christian Jones, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.
The news comes as the Cardinals continue making moves to finalize their 53-man roster ahead of the roster-cutdown deadline on Sunday. Arizona traded running back Corey Kiner on Saturday in exchange for a 2028 seventh-round draft pick.
Jones was drafted by the Cardinals in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft. He started last season on injured reserve due to a knee injury before being activated in December. He appeared in four games with one start across two seasons.
Jones was another player who was gonna have a tough time making the 53-man roster behind left tackles Paris Johnson Jr. and Josh Fryar, with Elijah Wilkinson and Jayden Williams likely taking the spots on the right side of the offensive line.

Josh Fryar has looked good and Jones lost his job to Jayden Williams who looks like the real deal. I think Williams has a chance to become a starter and best Wilkinson out, Williams looks good and could be the future at RT.
