  • Cardinals' Leki Fotu: Off COVID-19 list, back practicing

    Fotu was removed from the COVID-19 list Monday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Fotu was listed as a close contact to a player who caught COVID-19, so he was cleared quickly after a few negative tests. The second-year defensive tackle appeared in 11 games last season, registering 11 tackles and one sack. He will likely compete with Zach Allen as the primary backup behind J.J. Watt and Jordan Phillips.

  • Cardinals' Leki Fotu: Put on reserve/COVID-19 list

    Fotu was added to the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

    Fotu was listed as a close contact to a player who caught COVID-19, so he had to be placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. The second-year defensive tackle appeared in 11 games last season, tallying 11 tackles and one sack. Any time he's forced to miss should give undrafted rookie Cam Murray more chances to earn a roster spot with the Cardinals.

  • Cardinals' Leki Fotu: Returns from IR

    Fotu (ankle) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.

    Fotu will return to the lineup Sunday against the Rams after a three-week absence. The rookie fourth-round pick out of Utah will start at defensive end if Angelo Blackson (illness) is out, and Fotu should get plenty of work regardless.

  • Cardinals' Leki Fotu: Trending in right direction

    Fotu (ankle) has been designated for a return from injured reserve by the Cardinals on Wednesday.

    Fotu has missed the last three games with the ankle issue but returned to practice Wednesday for the first time since the injury. The Cardinals will have 21 days to activate Fotu, so he could return as early as Sunday's game against the Rams. His return won't affect much from a defensive perspective, as Fotu has supplied just five tackles (two solo) this campaign.

  • Cardinals' Leki Fotu: Shifts to injured reserve

    Fotu (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.

    Fotu was already ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Buffalo, and he'll instead be out for at least the next three games. Jordan Phillips (hamstring) is also sidelined, leaving Corey Peters, Trevon Coley, Angelo Blackson and Josh Mauro as the only defensive linemen available this weekend.

  • Cardinals' Leki Fotu: Will miss Sunday's clash

    Fotu (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Bills, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    The rookie fourth-rounder has played in six games without a start this year, recording five tackles. With both Fotu and Jordan Phillips (hamstring) sitting out, Josh Mauro and Angelo Blackson are the only healthy defensive ends currently on Arizona's roster. The Cardinals likely will bring up practice squad players to serve as depth.

  • Cardinals' Leki Fotu: Arizona adds in fourth round

    The Cardinals selected Fotu in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft, 114th overall.

    Fotu (6-foot-5, 330) is a huge nose tackle out of Utah, where he helped anchor one of college football's best defenses. As much as Fotu is unlikely to make a big impact in the box score, his anchor ability and reach (34 and 1/4-inch arms) should allow him to free up others to make plays on defense.
