The Arizona Cardinals began their week of practice for Week 11 to prepare for the San Francisco 49ers and released their first injury report. For the first time in several weeks, running back David Johnson did not appear on it.
However, seven players did not practice. Five were because of injuries.
Did not practice
- DL Jonathan Bullard (foot)
- RB Chase Edmonds (hamstring)
- WR Larry Fitzgerald (day off)
- LB Chandler Jones (day off)
- DL Zach Kerr (knee)
- LB Terrell Suggs (hamstring, back)
- TE Maxx Williams (illness)
Suggs has been on the injury report for several weeks and still has played. The day off was probably a mix of being a day off and dealing with his injuries. With both Kerr and Bullard unable to practice, it makes more sense now why the team placed rookie Zach Allen on injured reserve. If even one is unable to play on Sunday, they would need someone else available. Miles Brown becomes that guy.
Edmonds is still unlikely to play this week but should be good for after the bye, per Kliff Kingsbury.
Another six were limited.
Limited
- CB Tramaine Brock (hamstring)
- OL Lamont Gaillard (thumb)
- LB Dennis Gardeck (ankle)
- DL Rodney Gunter (calf)
- OL Justin Murray (knee)
- CB Patrick Peterson (calf)
Safety Deionte Thompson, who missed the game on Sunday with a knee injury, was a full participant on Wednesday. The fact that Peterson was limited should be optimistic. Murray practiced for the first time in a couple of weeks.
