The #Cardinals are signing former #Chargers DT Darius Philon to a two-year, $10 million deal, sources tell me and @RapSheet. He gets $5M fully guaranteed. Max $12M with incentives.

Philon seemed like a good fit on the interior DL and that's not a huge contract. It leads me to think two possibilities:
1) The front office likes the combination of Autry, Hunt, Lewis, Stewart, and Ward.
2) Interior DL could be a target high in the draft and Ballard doesn't want to overcrowd the above depth chart when he's anticipating adding another quality player.
