Cardinals place LB LaMarr Woodley on IR

The Arizona Cardinals placed linebacker LaMarr Woodley on season-ending injured reserve with a chest injury and signed defensive tackle Red Bryant on Thursday.

Woodley, 31, played in all 10 games this season and had 10 tackles with one sack. Woodley missed practice Wednesday with the injury.

The 6-foot-4, 323-pound Bryant is a seven-year NFL veteran who started all 16 games last season with the Jacksonville Jaguars and had 22 tackles, one sack, one forced fumble and two tackles for loss. He spent the first six years of his career with Seattle after being drafted by the Seahawks in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL Draft out of Texas A&M.

In his career, Bryant has started 71 of the 80 games that he has played, collecting 142 tackles, 4.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, two interceptions, seven passes defensed and 14 tackles for loss. Over the past four seasons, Bryant started 63 of a possible 64 games, only missing one contest in 2013. He has also blocked four kicks in his career -- three field goals and one extra point. He was released by Jacksonville on March 12 and spent training camp with the Buffalo Bills before being released on Sept. 5.
