Keishawn Bierria: Done in desert
The Cardinals waived Bierria on Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
The Cardinals poached Bierria off Jacksonville's practice squad last December and he appeared in one game with the team, but the 2018 sixth-round pick has ultimately failed to secure a depth role in Arizona. His acumen on special teams could streamline the process of latching on with another organization.

Cardinals' Keishawn Bierria: Poached from Jags' practice squad
The Cardinals signed Bierria off the Jaguars' practice squad Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Bierria played a full season with the Broncos last year and added four games to his resume in 2019, but he mainly stuck to special teams during that stretch.

When and if he dresses for games, he figures to primarily contribute on special teams.
