After taking some time to get healthy, former Georgia Bulldogs offensive lineman Jamaree Salyer is ready to make an NFL return. Salyer has signed with the Arizona Cardinals' practice squad.
The Miami Dolphins released Salyer in August after reaching an injury settlement. Salyer underwent knee surgery and is feeling better now after rehabbing his injury. He provides NFL experience and depth for the Cardinals up front. Salyer visited Arizona back in October.
Salyer, 26, was a sixth-round pick in the 2022 NFL draft. He spent the majority of his NFL career with the Los Angeles Chargers. He started 40 games for Los Angeles from 2022-2025 and has appeared in 64 career NFL games. In college, he helped the Georgia Bulldogs win the 2021 national championship.
In 2025, Salyer started five games and appeared in 13 contests for the Chargers. He should compete for a role on Arizona's active roster after he gets some time to acclimate to his new teammates.
In Arizona, Salyer will be blocking for one of his former Georgia teammates in quarterback Carson Beck, who is now the Cardinals' starter. Salyer can play both offensive tackle and offensive guard.
