Cardinals Sign C Max Tuerk

The Cardinals have signed center Max Tuerk off the Chargers’ practice squad. To make room, the team has placed center/guard Daniel Munyer on injured reserve. Max Tuerk (vertical)

Tuerk, a third round pick of the Bolts in 2016, has yet to play in an NFL game. Last year, injuries kept him off the field. This year, he was suspended for the first four games of the season for violating the league’s PED policy and was waived before he was eligible to return. The Chargers stashed him on the practice squad afterwards, but it’s no surprise that another team has swooped in on him.

Tuerk will help to provide depth on the interior line in advance of Thursday night’s game against the Seahawks. With the ability to play both guard and center, he could see potentially see some snaps in relief of Alex Boone, A.Q. Shipley, and Earl Watford – provided that he is on the active roster.
