Meriweather was released last week when defensive tackle Barry Cofield was signed. He will take the roster spot that opened when fullback Nikita Whitlock was placed on injured reserve with a knee injury.
Meriweather started the first 11 games. He had 53 tackles, two interceptions and seven passed defensed before missing two games with a knee injury
Whitlock did not have a carry this season but was noticed more for filling in on the defensive line in passing situations. The former defensive lineman at Wake Forest had one sack.
