The Arizona Cardinals add a young defensive lineman to the mix.

The Arizona Cardinals have added to their roster ahead of the start of training camp, signing defensive lineman Kyon Barrs after a workout.

From the team:

The Arizona Cardinals Football Club today announced that the team has signed defensive lineman Kyon Barrs (KEY-on). The signing took place today at the Dignity Health Arizona Cardinals Training Center in Tempe, AZ.

Barrs (6-1, 301) most recently played with the Arlington Renegades of the UFL and appeared in 10 games where he totaled 24 tackles (seven solo), 1.0 sack, one tackle for loss and one pass defensed. He entered the NFL last year with Seattle as an undrafted rookie free agent after playing collegiately at Arizona (2019-22) and USC (2023). While in college, Barrs appeared in 51 games (24 starts) and recorded 120 tackles (57 solo), 13 tackles for loss and 5.0 sacks.

Barrs will wear jersey #65.

We will take a look at the Cardinals defensive line depth chart in the coming days, but Barrs just gives them another body in the middle of what should be an improved defense.

Welcome to the dessert, Kyon.
