Misses another practice
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 8:07 PM
Williams (knee) did not participate at Arizona's practice Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Williams has missed back-to-back practices to open the week as he nurses a knee injury he suffered in Week 8 versus the Cowboys. The offensive lineman will have one more chance to return to practice before Sunday's game versus Seattle, and if he's unable to play in Week 9, Josh Fryar could draw a start at left tackle in place of Williams. |

Misses another practice
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 8:01 PM
Gaines (ankle) did not participate at the Cardinals' practice Thursday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Gaines has missed back-to-back practices to open the week as he continues to nurse an ankle injury that he suffered in mid-October. The offensive lineman appears to be on track to miss a third game in a row Sunday versus the Seahawks. |

Limited again Thursday
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 7:55 PM
Adams (ankle) was a limited participant at the Cardinals' practice Thursday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Adams logged his second straight limited practice after being designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday. The offensive lineman will have one more chance to log a full practice before potentially being activated for Sunday's matchup with the Seahawks. |
Bam Knight Bam Knight Another DNP on Thursday
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 6:22 PM
Knight (concussion) officially didn't practice Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Since exiting Week 8 action with a concussion, Knight hasn't been able to log any practice reps, which generally isn't a good sign that he'll be available Sunday at Seattle. Arizona may make a ruling on Knight's status once it posts Friday's injury report, and if he's indeed sidelined for that contest, Tyler Allgeier stands to serve as the team's workhorse running back this weekend, with Evan Hull likely backing him up. |
Michael Wilson Michael Wilson Stays limited in practice
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 6:19 PM
Wilson (rest/ribs) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Wilson continues to don a yellow non-contact jersey on the practice field as he deals with two broken ribs, so his activity level comes as no surprise. Friday's injury report will determine if Wilson enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game at Seattle, but he's already demonstrated an ability to play through the issue, notching a 79 percent snap share, reeling in eight of 15 targets for 111 yards and one touchdown and recording a 17-yard carry in this past Sunday's win in Dallas. |

Michael Wilson Michael Wilson Still in non-contact jersey
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 2:23 PM
Wilson (ribs) remained in a yellow non-contact jersey at Thursday's practice, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson has been wearing said jersey the past two weeks due to what he noted are two broken ribs. He still played through the pain this past Sunday in Dallas, despite exiting for a spell in the middle of the contest, ending Week 8 with eight catches (on 15 targets) for 111 yards and one touchdown and one carry for 17 yards. Thursday's injury report will unveil Wilson's activity level. |

Bam Knight Bam Knight Absent from Thursday practice
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 2:12 PM
Knight (concussion) wasn't present for Thursday's practice, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Assuming Knight goes down as a non-participant Thursday, his lack of activity so far this week doesn't give him a good chance to gain clearance from the concussion protocol ahead of Sunday's game at Seattle. With Jeremiyah Love (ankle) hitting IR on Tuesday, Tyler Allgeier is poised to lead the Cardinals backfield until Knight is back in action, at which point there's expected to be more of a even split between the two. |

Designated to return from IR
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 9:52 PM
Adams (ankle) was designated to return from injured reserve by the Cardinals on Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Adams has been on IR since Oct. 10 while recovering from an ankle injury, but he had his 21-day practice window opened by Arizona on Wednesday. The offensive lineman will now either be activated from IR in that time frame or remain sidelined for the rest of the year. |
|
Bam Knight Bam Knight Absent from practice Wednesday
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 8:37 PM
Knight (concussion) did not practice Wednesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Knight is in concussion protocol after playing just 18 offensive snaps in last Sunday's overtime win over the Cowboys. With Jeremiyah Love (ankle) headed to injured reserve and out for at least the next four weeks, Knight figures to have a key backfield role alongside Tyler Allgeier, but it might be a challenge for Knight to gain clearance for Sunday's game against Seattle. |
|
Michael Wilson Michael Wilson Stays limited Wednesday
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 8:25 PM
Wilson (rest/ribs) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: After Wilson continued to wear a yellow non-contact jersey at Wednesday's session, his ensuing activity level mimics what transpired last week, when he initially donned the jersey. He relayed after this past Sunday's win at Dallas that he has two broken ribs, but the addition of rest on the injury report this week indicates he's preparing to continue to play through the issue. Friday's practice report will reveal if Wilson has a designation for Sunday's game in Seattle. |

Bam Knight Bam Knight Could see increased workload soon
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 6:29 PM
Coach Mike LaFleur said Wednesday that the Cardinals planned on Knight (concussion) being one of their top two backs before he and Jeremiyah Love (ankle) suffered injuries in Week 8 against the Cowboys, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Love will have to spend at least the next four games on IR, and Knight's availability for Week 9 is in doubt with him being in concussion protocol, but his coach's words signal a prominent role in Arizona's backfield may be waiting for him whenever he's ready to play again. Until then, free-agent acquisition Tyler Allgeier figures to be the primary beneficiary of Love's extended absence, but Knight should also eventually see an increased workload, especially in the passing game. Recent signee Evan Hull is also in the mix, but he has not played an offensive snap yet in 2026. |

Michael Wilson Michael Wilson Wearing non-contact jersey at practice
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 4:35 PM
Wilson (ribs) wore a yellow non-contact jersey at Wednesday's practice, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: Wilson also donned such a jersey last week, when he was listed as limited on all three of the Cardinals' injury reports due to a rib injury. He then missed a spell from the second and into the third quarters this past Sunday in Dallas, after which it was revealed he's tending to two broken ribs. Wilson still put up an 8-111-1 line on 15 targets in that contest, and assuming he's able to suit up Sunday at Seattle, he'll be one of new starting QB Gardner Minshew's top available pass catchers along with TE Trey McBride. |
Elijah Higgins Elijah Higgins Draws season-high four targets in Week 8
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 8:55 PM
Higgins tallied two catches for 10 yards on four targets Sunday in a 33-30 overtime win over Dallas.
Analysis: Wideout Michael Wilson missed a portion of the contest due to an injury to his ribs, and Kendrick Bourne (lower leg) exited for good late in the first half. That resulted in a need for other Cardinals pass catchers to step up, and Higgins ended up getting targeted a season-high four times. However, he didn't do much with the opportunity, finishing with his lowest yardage total since he was shut out in Week 2. Meanwhile, No. 1 tight end Trey McBride had another big game with seven catches for 72 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. McBride's elite status will likely continue to make Higgins an afterthought most weeks. |
Reggie Virgil Reggie Virgil Increased opportunities ahead
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 8:35 PM
Virgil failed to reel in either of his targets during Sunday's 33-30 overtime victory against Dallas.
Analysis: Virgil played a season-high 38 offensive snaps, but he went without a reception for the third straight week. The Cardinals placed Kendrick Bourne (lower leg) on injured reserve Tuesday after the wide receiver fractured his right tibia in Week 8, so more opportunities could come Virgil's way moving forward. Regardless of an increase in workload, the team's Week 9 matchup versus Seattle will be a challenging one for the 22-year-old. |
Devin Duvernay Devin Duvernay Two catches in overtime win
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 8:30 PM
Duvernay caught both of his targets for 14 yards while also adding 75 yards as a kick returner and 12 punt-return yards during Sunday's 33-30 overtime win against the Cowboys.
Analysis: Duvernay reeled in his first two passes of the year while playing 34 offensive snaps in the victory. Fellow wideout Kendrick Bourne (lower leg) fractured his right tibia during the contest, and he is likely set to miss the rest of the 2026 campaign. Duvernay will likely see an increased role on offense in Bourne's absence, but he will remain an unappealing fantasy option ahead of the team's Week 9 matchup against Seattle. |
Simi Fehoko Simi Fehoko Climbs up depth chart
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 6:32 PM
Fehoko is listed as a starting receiver on the Cardinals' unofficial depth chart heading into Sunday's game at Seattle, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Analysis: Buried on the depth chart at receiver to begin the season, Fehoko mostly served as a special-teams contributor through the Cardinals' first seven games. However, with the Cardinals trading away Marvin Harrison before losing Jalen Brooks (wrist) and Kendrick Bourne (tibia) to season-ending injuries within the past two weeks, Fehoko suddenly finds himself in a position to contribute. After Bourne made an early exit in this past Sunday's 33-30 overtime victory over the Cowboys, Fehoko played double-digit snaps for the first time in 2026. He wasn't much of a factor in the Cardinals' comeback win, however, earning just one target (for a 17-yard reception) while taking the field for 40 of the team's 81 offensive play. While Fehoko could see his playing time climb even higher in Week 9, tight ends Trey McBride and Elijah Higgins, wideouts Michael Wilson (ribs) and Reggie Virgil and running back Tyler Allgeier may be better bets to command targets from quarterback Gardner Minshew. |
James Conner James Conner Not expected to return Week 9
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 6:31 PM
Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said Tuesday that Conner (foot) won't return from IR this week, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Though LaFleur said last week that Conner could "potentially" play this season, that won't happen in Week 9. The veteran running back continues to work his way back from a right foot injury and has not yet been cleared to practice. Arizona is dealing with multiple injuries in its backfield, including to Jeremiyah Love (ankle - IR) and Bam Knight (concussion), so Conner could have provided a big boost if he'd been able to work his way back this week. Instead, the team will turn to Tyler Allgeier to lead its backfield, with Evan Hull serving as his primary backup if Knight is unable to suit up Sunday against Seattle. |
Tyler Allgeier Tyler Allgeier Set for lead-back duties
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 6:17 PM
Allgeier is slated to work as Arizona's No. 1 running back for at least the next four weeks after Jeremiyah Love (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Allgeier previously led the Cardinals' backfield when Love was sidelined due to a different ankle injury Weeks 6 and 7, but Allgeier is now slated for a longer period in that role. Love was hurt late in the first quarter in his return to action Sunday against Dallas, and Allgeier ran wild after his departure, finishing with a career-high 147 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries along with 44 yards and another score on five receptions. In addition to Love getting hurt, Bam Knight suffered a concussion and is iffy to be able to suit up this Sunday against Seattle, so the backfield could belong to Allgeier, Evan Hull and a practice-squad signee (likely Jerome Ford). Though Allgeier found substantial success in Week 8, he came into the contest averaging just 2.9 yards per carry on 61 totes. He'll also be facing a Seattle defense in Week 9 that is tied for the second-fewest yards per carry (3.8) allowed to running backs this season, so a repeat performance by Allgeier would be surprising. |
Harrison Wallace III Harrison Wallace III Signed to active roster
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 4:48 PM
The Cardinals signed Wallace from the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday.
Analysis: Wallace signed to Arizona's practice squad in August and has yet to play in a regular-season game. Week 9 will be the undrafted free agent's NFL debut should he be active for Sunday's matchup against Seattle. He will likely act as a depth piece should he play. |
Jeremiyah Love Jeremiyah Love Hits IR, out 4-to-5 weeks
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 3:13 PM
Arizona placed Love (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Love's move to IR was fully expected, after Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Tuesday that the rookie first-round pick was diagnosed with a right high-ankle sprain and was facing a projected recovery timeline of 4-to-5 weeks. While Love is on the mend, Tyler Allgeier is expected to step into a lead role out of the Arizona backfield beginning with the team's Week 9 game against Seattle. |
