Cardinals sign DT Darius Kilgo

He had a workout with the Cardinals over the weekend.

The Arizona Cardinals had defensive tackle Darius Kilgo on Monday. He had a tryout with the team on Saturday.

He replaces Xavier Williams, who was placed on injured reserve over the weekend. He will be wearing Williams’ No. 70 jersey.

Listed at 6-3 and 320 pounds, Kilgo began his career in 2015 with the Denver Broncos when they selected him in the sixth round of the draft. He has played in 29 career games with the Broncos (2015-16) and Tennessee Titans (2018) and had 11 tackles, one pass defensed and one quarterback hit.

He was on the Broncos practice squad in 2020 after spending training camp with the Patriots. During his NFL career, Kilgo has been on the practice squads of the Patriots, Jaguars, Texans, Titans and Lions.

Having signed early in the week, it is possible he gets some playing time in the Cardinals’ preseason opener on Friday against the Dallas Cowboys.
