The Cardinals worked out Attaochu (pectoral) on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports. Attaochu ended the 2021 campaign on IR with a pectoral injury and was released by the Bears this offseason. However, now healthy, the 2014 second-round pick is looking to work his way back onto an NFL roster. The veteran linebacker is only one year removed from totaling 52 tackles and 8.5 sacks in 25 appearances across two seasons with Denver.

Attachou (pectoral) was released by the Bears on Monday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports. Attaochu presumably was let go to help make room for free-agent nose tackle Mike Pennel, whom the team signed in a corresponding move Monday. The 29-year-old linebacker played 124 defensive snaps over five games before a torn pectoral that forced him to finish last season on the Bears' injured reserve list. Attaochu signed a two-year, $5.5 million contract with Chicago ahead of the 2021 campaign, but he ultimately was a long shot to make the team's final 53-man roster this time around while coming off such a severe season-ending injury.

The Bears placed Attaochu (pectoral) on injured reserve Wednesday, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports. As expected, Attaochu was placed on injured reserve after suffering a torn pectoral during Sunday's contest against the Raiders. In a corresponding move, the Bears signed Sam Kamara to their active roster and Ledarius Mack and Rashad Smith to their practice squad.

Attaochu (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers. Attaochu entered the day carrying a questionable designation after participating in a limited fashion throughout the practice week. He had largely been unavailable for contact drills since suffering the quad injury in late September, but recent progression provided optimism he'd be able to suit up for a Week 8 divisional clash. Attaochu is expected to make his first game appearance since Sept. 27 as a starter at outside linebacker.

Attaochu (quadriceps) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. After missing yet another week of practice, Attaochu will miss a third straight game. Malik Reed started in Attaochu's place Week 6 against the Patriots and is expected to remain in that role after posting two sacks.
