[sendtonews_embed video_id=”O2DIfSrN7z-2423250-7498″]

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown is officially questionable to play on Sunday against the Denver Broncos. He had an illness that kept him out on Thursday’s practice and had him limited in Friday’s final practice of the week.

However, he is expected to be a  go for the Cardinals as they face the Broncos on the road Sunday afternoon.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Brown is expected to play.

Arizona is already without tight end Zach Ertz and quarterback Kyler Murray to season-ending knee injuries. Starting offensive linemen D.J. Humphries, Justin Pugh and Rodney Hudson all are on injured reserve, with only Hudson with a possibility of coming back before the end of the season.

Brown has only played in eight games this season. He missed five on injured reserve with a broken foot. He has 53 receptions for 565 yards and three touchdowns this season.

Cardinals activate OL Will Hernandez from IR, elevate 2 from practice squad

Will Hernandez returns to the starting lineup after missing the last four games while on injured reserve.

[sendtonews_embed video_id=”O2DIfSrN7z-2423250-7498″]

The Arizona Cardinals announced some roster moves leading up to their game Sunday on the road against the Denver Broncos. They get back a starter on the offensive line.

The Cardinals reinstated right guard Will Hernandez to the active roster, activating him from injured reserve. He had missed the last four games with a strained pec. He will return to the starting lineup against the Broncos.

The Cardinals also announced two standard elevations from the practice squad. They elevated cornerback Nate Hairston and defensive lineman Manny Jones.

Jones is an undrafted rookie who signed with the Cardinals in the offseason. He played well in the preseason. He has appeared in one game this season.

Hairston has been on the practice squad since September. He has been in the league since 2017. His presence will likely be needed because cornerback Byron Murphy has been ruled out and both Antonio Hamilton and Marco Wilson are questionable to play.

Russell Wilson passes concussion protocol but won’t start vs. Cardinals

The Broncos decided organizationally to give Wilson another week to recover. It will be Colt McCoy vs. Brett Rypien this weekend.

This weekend, when the Arizona Cardinals take on the Denver Broncos on the road, it will not be the promised matchup between quarterbacks Kyler Murray and Russell Wilson.

Instead, it will be Colt McCoy for the Cardinals going up against Brett Rypien for the Broncos.

Murray is out for the season after tearing his ACL in Monday night’s game against the New England Patriots.

Wilson suffered a concussion in Denver’s 34-28 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.

Wilson successfully cleared concussion protocols and was a full participant in Denver’s Friday practice, but he has been ruled out of the game on the final injury report.

He did not get a full week of practice reps, having sat out Wednesday and being only limited on Thursday.

It was a team decision to rule him out.

“As an organization, we’ve decided to give him another week,” Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett told reporters Friday.

It will be the first time Wilson has missed a start against the Cardinals. As a member of the Seattle Seahawks, he started against Arizona 20 times in 10 seasons, going 11-8-1 against them.
