Report: Cardinals in mix to sign safety LaRon Landry

Mar 12, 2013, 5:56 PM | Updated: 6:07 pm

Just days after deciding to part with safety Adrian Wilson, the Arizona Cardinals may be lining up his replacement.

Landry, 28, most recently played for the New York Jets. He tallied 99 tackles and two interceptions last year, and owns career marks of 482 combined tackles, 5.5 sacks and six interceptions.

Originally drafted by the Washington Redskins sixth overall in 2007, Landry has a reputation for being a big hitter who is better in run support than he is in coverage. At 6-feet tall and 220 pounds Landry has good size, though he’s dealt with injury issues over the course of his career. He’s played in all 16 games just three times in six seasons.
