ARIZONA — The Arizona Cardinals are bringing a familiar face back to the facility.

Per the team’s media relations department:

“The Arizona Cardinals Football Club today announced that the team has signed defensive lineman Angelo Blackson to the practice squad and has released defensive lineman Tyler Manoa from the practice squad.”

Manoa was inked to the practice squad last week before being released today.

Arizona’s defensive line struggled in their Week 1 opener against the Buffalo Bills, and while this is only a practice squad move, perhaps some extra competition can be aded with Blackson’s presence.

More on his re-arrival via the Cardinals:

“Blackson (6-4, 318) returns to the Cardinals after he played 16 games (nine starts) with the team in 2020 when he had 24 tackles, 2.5 sacks, eight quarterback hits and four tackles for loss. A 10-year NFL veteran, Blackson has played with the Jaguars (2023), Beras (2021-22), Cardinals (2020), Texans (2017-19) and Titans (2015-16) after entering the league in the 2015 NFL Draft with Tennessee as a fourth-round selection (100th overall) from Auburn.

“For his career, Blackson has appeared in 128 games (42 starts) and has 179 tackles, 8.5 sacks, 27 quarterback hits, 17 tackles for loss, eight passes defensed, one interception, four fumble recoveries and one forced fumble. He played in 11 games with Jacksonville last season and spent the preseason with Denver.

“Blackson will wear jersey #90.”

The Cardinals are back home this week to face the Los Angeles Rams at State Farm Stadium.

While no defensive lineman appeared to suffer injuries last week, cornerback Max Melton is currently going through concussion protocol while right tackle Jonah Williams’ knee status is still unknown after exiting in the first half against Buffalo.

Arizona State assistant football coach dies

Arizona State football assistant strength coach Steven Miller has died, according to the Maricopa County Medical Examiner’s Office.

Miller, 29, passed away Wednesday, April 15.

Chris Karpman first reported the news via X.

Miller, who suffered from epilepsy, had endured medical issues recently, one incident occurring after the team had wrapped up practice on April 7. Most of the players had left the practice facility, but about 30 or so remained behind, some waiting for transportation back and others doing interviews with the media.

Miller was not at the next two practices, but was back at practice on April 14.

He was one of the coaches who had a special bond with many of the team’s players.

Jeff Sims, who played quarterback from 2024 to 2025, posted a photo on his social media of Miller after the Big 12 conference championship win over Iowa State with the caption: “Solid as they come rest up my dawg.”

Tributes from players started to flow in.

Miller, a local product out of Gilbert High School, played right tackle for ASU from 2015-18.

Will Jose Fernandez ever take a walk? Yesterday, he went 2-for-4, but failed to draw a base on balls for the 13th game since he made his debut on March 31st. That is getting him up there into some fairly rarefied company. Well, at least among non-pitchers. As far as records likely never to be broken, we have Enrique Burgos, who appeared 71 times for the Diamondbacks, without a walk. The fact he never came to the plate may have been a factor in this. But in terms of plate appearances to start a career, Fernandez is getting up there. That’s now 44 PA, which have resulted in 44 at-bats. No walks. No HBP. No catcher’s interference. Zero trots down the line to first.

He does have some way to go to reach the franchise record. For the longest time – over twenty years – the mark was held by Jerry Gil, the walkless wonder. In 2004, he played 26 times for the D-backs, coming to the plate 86 times without drawing a walk (he did get hit by a pitch ones). What’s more remarkable is, save one game as a pinch-runner for the Reds in 2007, that was his entire major-league career. Baseball Reference still tags that streak as active… No other position player has had a walkless career with as many PA for almost a hundred years, since Overton Tremper went 94 PA in 1927-28.

However, Gil was recently displaced as the franchise leader for walkless PA’s to start a career. And it was by someone currently on the roster. Nobody noticed much, since it took almost two full seasons to achieve it. But Jorge Barrosa went 35 games and 91 PA, before finally getting his first base on balls in the final game last year. Of course, baseball being baseball, he then walked again, the very next time up. Another D-back also makes the top 10 by games played. Ildemaro Vargas was walkless in his first 20 appearances, though a) they were back in 2017-18, and b) that covered only 28 PA. Right now, by PA, Fernandez sits sixth. We’ll see how much higher her rises!
