The Arizona Cardinals released their second injury report fo the week on Thursday, preparing for their Week 6 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. There were some improvements but the player everyone is paying attention to — running back David Johnson — remained sidelined.
Johnson missed his second straight practice with a back injury, further putting in doubt the possibility he will play against the Falcons.
He could be a gametime decision, but coach Kliff Kingsbury has said he will have to be at full speed to play.
Six players sat out on Thursday.
Did not practice
- LB Dennis Gardeck (ankle)
- LB Jordan Hicks (day off)
- RB David Johnson (back)
- LB Terrell Suggs (back)
- LB Zeke Turner (hamstring)
- S Charles Washington (shoulder)
Seven players were limited on Thursday. One player, linebacker Haason Reddick (shoulder), was upgraded to limited after missing on Wednesday. Recently acquired cornerback Trevor Williams (hip) was a new addition, while defensive lineman Zach Allen (neck) was downgraded from full on Wednesday to limited on Thursday.
Here are those who were limited:
