The Arizona Cardinals signed defensive lineman Ben Stille to their practice squad a month after losing him to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Stille was waived on Tuesday after he had appeared in three games with Tampa Bay, recording a tackle and a fumble recovery.
Last week, he possessed a strip-sack of Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts late in a Buccaneers win.

The Bucs signed Stille off Arizona’s practice squad to their active roster on Sept. 6 amid a run of injuries to the defensive line. Adding Stille to the active roster required Tampa Bay to retain Stille for at least three weeks.
Stille returns to Arizona, a place he is familiar with having appeared in five games for the Cardinals in 2023. He recorded eight tackles and a sack last season.
He rejoins a defensive front that remains without rookie Darius Robinson (injured reserve) and lost interior lineman Justin Jones for the year.
Stille entered the NFL out of Nebraska as an undrafted free agent by signing the Miami Dolphins.
