Cardinals place OL Dennis Daley and LB Myjai Sanders on IR

Sanders, who injured his hand in training camp, and Daley, who hurt his ankle, must miss at least the first four games of the season.

The Arizona Cardinals made a pair of roster moves on Friday for injured players. They placed guard Dennis Daley and linebacker Myjai Sanders on injured reserve on Thursday, the team announced in a press release and on social media.

Daley injured his ankle in the Cardinals’ preseason finale on Saturday. Head coach Jonathan Gannon ruled him out of the season opener when he spoke to the media on Thursday.

He has now been ruled out for at least four weeks.

Daley in in his first season with the Cardinals after signing as a free agent in the offseason. During the preseason, he was basically their sixth offensive lineman, getting snaps as a tackle eligible when they played a jumbo formation.

Sanders injured his hand early in training camp and did not play in any of their preseason matchups.

The second-year outside linebacker must also miss at least the first four games of the season.
