NFL: Arizona signs sixth-round pick Davis


Associated Press

TEMPE, Ariz. — The Arizona Cardinals have signed sixth-round draft pick Will Davis.
The 6-foot-2, 261-pound Davis was a defensive end in college at Illinois, who will be converted to outside linebacker. He played in all 12 games for the Illini last season, with 36 tackles with 3› sacks, one forced fumble and a blocked kick.

He is the fourth Arizona draftee to sign. The others are fifth-round pick Herman Johnson, an offensive lineman from LSU, and two seventh-round selections, running back LaRod Stephens-Howling of Pittsburgh and offensive guard Trevor Canfield of Cincinnati.
