The Arizona Cardinals added to their secondary with safety Kentrell Brice and gave another option for Kyler Murray, picking up wide receiver Andre Patton.
The team made both additions official on Wednesday in a release.
Brice would join a safety corps that is led by All-Pro Budda Baker but leaves second-year players Jalen Thompson and Deionte Thompson as the top options for the other starting spot.
Rookie Isaiah Simmons saw time at the position in college but is expected to see more playing time at linebacker with the Cardinals.
Brice has spent time with the Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Chicago Bears.
