The Arizona Cardinals had practice again on Thursday in training camp but it was an early one. It went from 10:50 a.m. – 12:50 p.m. at State Farm Field. It is likely many readers were unable to attend because it was during the middle of the workday. So here are some things to know, as noted by those member who were in attendance.
Some vets were off
Veteran outside linebacker Terrell Suggs got the day off of practice, announced coach Kliff Kingsbury.
While it was not announced, it appears that running back D.J. Foster also was given a day off.
Foster isn’t exactly a veteran but he is coming off an ACL injury. He had a day off over the weekend as well and practiced the following day.
According to AZCardinals.com’s Darren Urban, defensive lineman Corey Peters and tackle Marcus Gilbert also had the day off.
Young offensive linemen get first-team reps
Apparently, the Cardinals gave a couple of young offensive linemen some reps with the first team. Tackle Korey Cunningham, a second-year player they drafted in the seventh round last year, and Lamont Gaillard, whom they selected in the sixth round this year, played some with the starters.
Gaillard was at right guard and Cunningham at right tackle.
Possible injury to Andy Isabella
Isabella scored a touchdown and then was seen limping off the field. He then headed to the locker room.
No open practice until Saturday
The Cardinals will practice on Friday but it will be closed to the public. It will be outside in the morning. The next time you can head to practice is on Saturday for the Red & White practice.
