Overview
- Minnesota waived the undrafted Auburn product after 11 appearances in 2025, when he logged seven tackles, a tackle for loss and one sack on mostly special-teams snaps.
- Arizona was awarded the claim in the current waiver order and added Keys to the 53-man roster.
- To create space, the Cardinals placed rookie safety Kitan Crawford on injured reserve.
- The team also released offensive lineman Tyler Cooper to stay within roster limits across the active roster and practice squad.
- By claiming him, Arizona takes on his existing deal with reported salaries of about $1.005 million in 2026 and $1.12 million in 2027, following his undrafted arrival from Auburn after starting his college career at Ole Miss.
