The Arizona Cardinals have all the players on their roster available as they started strength and conditioning and walkthroughs in training camp. Initially, right end Maxx Williams was unavailable, placed on the non-football illness list along with right tackle Marcus Gilbert.
Gilbert chose to opt out of the 2020 season as a player with high risk for COVID-19. That led to some speculation that Williams might do the same.
Thus far, that has not happened.
On Tuesday’s NFL transaction report, Williams also passed his physical, so he is cleared and set to begin workouts and participating in walkthroughs.
Head coach Kliff Kingsbury told reporters Tuesday the delay was something “procedural” and that he and Gilbert would be ready soon. Now Williams is.
Williams is slated to be the Cardinals’ starting tight end again in 2020.
