After the 2003 season he spent time on the injured-reserved and was resigned by the Packers. During training camp he was waived by the Packers but then immediately signed by the Arizona Cardinals, who waived him 11 days later after which he was signed by the Bengals the next day. He played the next two seasons with the Bengals. After the 2006 season he became a free agent and was signed by the Atlanta Falcons who released him after the 2007 season.^[1]
