Foote (biceps) was a part of the first-team defense during spring practices, the Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

After Daryl Washington was suspended for the season last month, Foote's standing is one of necessity more than anything, as he's the top option to cover the open spot at inside linebacker next to Kevin Minter. In 2013, a torn biceps brought Foote's season to a close after just one game, but he has the potential to record a significant number of tackles, having tallied 80-plus in five of the last nine years. His age (34) and the fact that he's coming off a serious injury are concerns, which should spur potential owners to keep an eye on Lorenzo Alexander (foot), among other options.
