The Arizona Cardinals released their second injury report of the week on Thursday and things got a little better. Four players were upgraded in the practice designation, but two new injuries popped up.
Did not practice
- OL Justin Pugh (back)
- LB Terrell Suggs (back, illness)
Pugh’s back is something to watch. The season before signing with the Cardinals, he had back issues. Suggs has practiced little this season, so he will still likely play.
Limited
- S Budda Baker (hamstring)
- OL Maon Cole (knee)
- OL J.R.Sweezy (illness)
- WR Andy Isabella (shoulder)
- WR Christian Kirk (ankle)
- CB Kevin Peterson (shoulder)
- LB Joe Walker (ribs)
- TE Maxx Williams (knee)
Baker, Cole and Sweezy were all able to practice some after sitting out Wednesday, which suggests they are progressing toward hopefully playing on Sunday. Williams’ injury is new.
Cornerback Byron Murphy (calf) was a full participant on Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Tight end Darrell Daniels (chest) appeared for the first time on the injury report but he practiced fully.
