The Arizona Cardinals announced on Saturday they’re adding four players to the team’s active roster.

Defensive lineman Michael Dogbe was elevated off the practice squad as a standard elevation, while running back D.J. Foster and cornerback Jace Whittaker were elevated off the practice squad as COVID-19 replacements.

Tight end Maxx Williams was activated from injured reserve.

In a corresponding move, the Cardinals released tight end Jordan Thomas.

Both Foster (ASU) and Whittaker (Arizona) are in-state collegiate products, while Dogbe played at Temple and Williams played at Minnesota.

Williams was placed on IR on Sept. 21.

He played in all 16 of the Cardinals’ games a year ago, posting 15 receptions, 202 receiving yards and a touchdown in that time.

The Cardinals host the Miami Dolphins at 2:25 p.m. Arizona time on Sunday at State Farm Stadium.
