The Arizona Cardinals signed cornerback Steven Gilmore on Sunday with cornerbacks Starling Thomas V and Jaden Davis headed to injured reserve.

“(Davis is) gonna miss some time but has a possibility to possibly come back,” Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said on Sunday after confirming Thomas would miss the entire season.
