Kevin Strong was discharged because of a personal matter; he might come back in 2024.

Kevin Strong, a defensive lineman, was unexpectedly released by the Arizona Cardinals in Week 18, just before

their season finale. He hadn’t been performing badly.

Regarding the roster change, head coach Jonathan Gannon just said, “What’s best for the team.”

Howard Balzer reported it was a personal matter that led to Strong’s release but that things were handled amicably.

Balzer noted that there is hope and positive belief he could be re-signed down the line.

Strong finished the season appearing 14 games, starting 11 of them. He had 46 total tackles, 2.5 sacks, five

tackles for loss, three quarterback hits, a pass breakup and a fumble recovery. He set career-highs in every

category but games played and pass breakups.
