Well, the full list has not yet been released, but a couple of other names have been leaked, either by the players themselves or through reporters getting info from sources.
On Friday, it was reported the Cardinals cut ties with quarterback Phillip Sims, runnin backs Robert Hughes and Paul Lasike and defensive lineman Matt Shaughnessy.
More reports came out on Saturday:
Cardinals cut Gabe Martin, according to a source

Cardinals cutting safety Harold Jones-Quartey, per a source, to join practice squad if he clears waivers following strong preseason

Thank you @AZCardinals for everything. Will always cherish all the memories we've made. Time to begin a new chapter! #TEAMTAAMU

Martin will be a practice squad candidate and his cut would make it appear undrafted linebacker Alani Fua wil make the final roster. Ta'amu just never could regain the dominance he had in 2013 after coming back from a torn ACL and struggling with his weight.
With the apparent cut of Williams, it would appear the Cardinals will go with four running backs -- Andre Ellington, Chris Johnson, David Johnson and Stepfan Taylor.
Jones-Quartey was the team's leader in snaps played. With the depth at safety, it was a foregone conclusion he would get cut. But with Rashad Johnson a free agent after 2015 and Tony Jefferson a restricted free agent, if he is on the practice squad all year, it opens the door for him to make an impact a year from now.
The team still has not announced all of its cuts. We'll have that for you as soon as we get it.
