After losing a pair of starting linebackers for the season to injuries, the Cardinals have restocked their roster.

The team announced they had signed Vic So’oto, and promoted Dontay Moch from the practice squad to fill the spots created when Lorenzo Alexander and Sam Acho were placed on injured reserve yesterday. They also signed former Bengals linebacker Bruce Taylor to the practice squad.

So’oto has bounced around a bit, making appearances with the Packers, Raiders and Redskins.

Alex Okafor and Matt Shaughnessy are listed first on the depth chart for now, but the Cardinals have more help on the way, with Daryl Washington eligible to return from suspension next week. It would also help if they could get something out of John Abraham, after signing the free agent pass-rusher this offseason.
