Elsewhere around the NFL:

Arizona: Matt Leinart will not be handed the starting job in Arizona, with coach Ken Whisenhunt confirming Tuesday that a veteran will be brought in for competition. It is expected that Arizona Cardinals will attempt to sign the recently released Derek Anderson.

Denver: Denver Broncos signed NT Jamal Williams, formerly of the Chargers, to a three-year, $16 million contract with $7 million guaranteed. Josh McDaniels’ defense is taking its cue from George Allen’s “Over-the-Hill Gang” of the early ’70s. Denver set out to beef up both lines, and they’ve succeeded beyond their expectations on the defensive side. Williams joins versatile veterans Justin Bannan and Jarvis Green up front, providing a massive upgrade to the run defense , at least on paper. Expect Williams to start at the nose, with Bannan at one end and Green at the other.

Minnesota: LaDainian Tomlinson is scheduled to visit with the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday, according to SI.com’s Jim Trotter. ESPN’s Adam Schefter confirms. Tomlinson surely realizes Adrian Peterson is entrenched as the lead dog, so it appears that he’s come to grips with a decreased role. Though the Vikes are seeking a replacement for Chester Taylor in the third-down role, the fit isn’t as natural as it would seem. Tomlinson is a downgrade in pass protection as well as after-the-catch ability.

Baltimore: ESPN’s Adam Schefter confirms the Baltimore Ravens are still attempting to re-sign free agent Derrick Mason even after bringing in Anquan Boldin and Donte’ Stallworth.

Tampa Bay: Free agent Antonio Bryant is believed to be the Bengals’ “first choice” at wide receiver, according to beat writer Joe Reedy. Bryant had a positive meeting with the Bengals Tuesday, pushing Terrell Owens’ visit back to Wednesday. Bryant also has a meeting scheduled with the Redskins Wednesday, so the Bengals will have to get him locked up before he leaves team headquarters. Speculation has emerged that Owens’ impending visit is merely to placate Chad Ochocinco, who has pushed for the signing.
