Wrapping up the Cardinals' bye week

TEMPE, Ariz. -- All was relatively quiet during the Arizona Cardinals' bye week.

Arizona had Thursday-Sunday off as the Cards prepare for a trip to Denver. A handful of personnel moves highlighted the week.

Here’s a look at what happened last week:

  • On Tuesday, the Cardinals signed former Arizona State University running back Marion Grice off the San Diego Chargers’ practice squad and released punter Drew Butler.

  • A day later, they signed defensive tackle Bruce Gaston off the Miami Dolphins’ practice squad and released running back Jalen Parmele.

  • Later Wednesday, Butler was re-signed to the Cards' practice squad. Defensive lineman Christian Tupou was released from the practice squad in the corresponding move.

  • Quarterback Drew Stanton was an honorary captain at Michigan State for the Spartans’ 56-14 win over Wyoming.

  • Rookie wide receiver John Brown visited Pittsburg State and led the Gorillas on their walk through fans to the crowd.

  • Linebacker Kevin Minter was honored by his high school, Peachtree Ridge, in Georgia.

  • With just one NFC West team in action this weekend, Arizona remained atop the division as San Francisco improved to 2-2 with a win over Philadelphia.

  • The Niners’ win over the Eagles eliminated one of the three unbeaten teams heading into Week 4. The two others -- Arizona and Cincinnati -- had byes.
