The Cardinals re-signed Wheeler on Monday, Mike Jurecki of ArizonaSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wheeler dealt with a foot injury throughout training camp, but still made it through to the 53-man roster. However, the team let him go prior to their Week 1 game against the Lions. They appear to have changed their minds, as Wheeler is now back with the team. He figures to provide depth at linebacker.

Wheeler (foot) is expected to miss another week, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wheeler suffered the foot injury early in camp and has yet to fully recover from the issue. When healthy, the veteran inside linebacker figures to rejoin a group that's temporarily without Deone Bucannon (ankle), opening up some preseason reps with the first-team defense. In the meantime, rookie first-round pick Haason Reddick will likely receive most of those opportunities.

Wheeler is considered day-to-day after suffering an undisclosed injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wheeler signed with the Cardinals on Thursday and is fighting to earn a role as a backup linebacker. His day-to-day status likely indicates the injury isn't overly serious and shouldn't be expected to hinder him longterm.

Wheeler signed with Arizona on Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old veteran only recorded 22 tackles in 16 games last season, so expect a limited role out of him in 2017. His veteran experience will be beneficial to the Cardinals, yet he likely won't receive enough snaps at inside linebacker to become fantasy relevant.

The Falcons have re-signed Wheeler.
EDGE Analysis
Wheeler, who recorded 29 tackles and a sack in nine games for the Falcons this past season, may be off the IDP radar these days, but retaining him bolsters the depth situation in Atlanta's linebacking corps.

The 49ers have signed Wheeler to a one-year deal, the 49ers' official site reports. Wheeler, who racked up 118 tackles for Miami in 2013, saw his production dip in 2014, to the tune of 46 tackles in 15 games, including four starts. He'll bolster a 49ers' inside linebacker corps that also currently rosters the likes of NaVorro Bowman, Michael Wilhoite, Desmond Bishop, Nick Moody, Nick Bellore and Shayne Skov.
