The Arizona Cardinals began their week of practice on Wednesday to prepare for the Pittsburgh Steelers. They released their first injury report of the week and they are pretty healthy overall. Four players sat out Wednesday’s practice but only two were because of injuries. One player was limited.
Did not practice
- DL Jonathan Bullard (hamstring)
- WR Larry Fitzgerald (day off)
- DL Corey Peters (day off)
- G J.R. Sweezy (illness)
Head coach Kliff Kingsbury already has said that Bullard will miss multiple weeks with the hamstring injury. Sweezy apparently is sick and probably will be able to play unless the illness lingers all week.
Fitzgerald and Peters usually get days off.
Limited
- S Jalen Thompson (concussion)
Thompson being limited is good. It means he has progressed through the protocol. If he is symptom-free after practicing, he should be a full participant by the end of the week.
Rookie offensive lineman Lamont Gaillard was also listed on the report as a full participant with a thumb injury.
