The Arizona Cardinals signed tight end Sage Surratt and released wide receiver Daniel Arias on Wednesday.
Surratt most recently played for the UFL’s Memphis Showboats, recording 27 receptions for 269 yards and two touchdowns across 10 games.
The tight end has yet to appear in an NFL game after entering the league as an undrafted free agent with the Detroit Lions in 2021.
He was eventually waived before signing on with Detroit’s practice squad.
