The Arizona Cardinals acquired outside linebacker Baron Browning from the Denver Broncos in a trade on Monday. He will have to work his way up in the depth chart.
The team released its Week 10 depth chart on Tuesday as they prepare to play the New York Jets at home. Browning is at the back of the rotation at outside linebacker.
The two starters at outside linebacker are again Zaven Collins on the weak side and Jesse Luketa on the strong side.
Browning is third on the depth chart behind Luketa and rookie Xavier Thomas, while Collins is ahead of Julian Okwara and Victor Dimukeje.
Now, the Cardinals rotate their outside linebackers and they do not play on on only one side. But Browning will have get worked into the rotation for his role.
The Cardinals play the New York Jets this week at home and then have their bye week.
At best, Browning will have a small role this week before a likely increase after the bye week.
For now, the believed starting-caliber pass rusher will have to work his way up from the back of the depth chart.
