The Arizona Cardinals have made the defensive line a priority this offseason. They might not be done adding players, Jess Root of USA Today's Cards Wire reports. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, free agent defensive lineman Austin Johnson is meeting with the Cardinals Friday after leaving a visit with the Buffalo Bills without a contract.

Johnson is 29 years old and listed at 6-foot-4 and 314 pounds. He was drafted in the second round by the Tennessee Titans in 2016, played four seasons for them, followed by two with the New York Giants and, most recently, two years with the Los Angeles Chargers.

He played and started all 17 games last season for the Chargers. He logged 46 total tackles, two for loss, a quarterback hit, two tipped passes, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.

Over the last seven seasons, the only games he missed were nine in 2022 when he injured his MCL and fractured his knee. He returned last season to play every game and play 640 defensive snaps, the second time in three seasons he played more than 600.
