The Cardinals signed Alford (pectoral) to a one-year deal Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Prior to Alford's two serious injuries over the past two years, the 32-year-old was a key component of Atlanta's defense, establishing a career high in tackles during his 2017 campaign (68 tackles). While it is unclear how the cornerback is doing in his recovery process, once healthy, Alford will aim to step back into his starting role.
