Cardinals' Marcell Ateman: Joins Arizona
Ateman signed a contract with the Cardinals on Thursday, Bob McManaman of the Arizona Republic reports.

Marcell Ateman: Cut by Las Vegas
Ateman was waived by the Raiders on Saturday.
Ateman geared up in 11 games for the Raiders last season and caught five of 10 targets for 116 yards, but even with Tyrell Williams (shoulder) going to IR, the offseason additions of Henry Ruggs, Bryan Edwards and Nelson Agholor were enough to push Ateman to the roster bubble.
