No Cardinals missed practice on Wednesday, and only five were limited due to injury: cornerback Justin Bethel (ankle), receiver John Brown (shoulder), running back David Johnson (toe), defensive tackle Josh Mauro (calf), and defensive tackle Frostee Rucker (ankle).

Fully participating in practice were linebacker Markus Golden (knee) and quarterback Carson Palmer (right finger).

Don't like seeing DJ with a toe injury. Wasn't aware of this. We need him at full speed so hopefully it's minor.

Have there been any updates on CJ? I know he is eligible to come back for the Super Bowl, but where is at in his rehab?

Thanks! That is good news after watching AE struggle. Hopefully CJ gets to play one more game.

AE has been purplexing. He only had 6 carries so I wouldnt say he struggled, he just barely even got to see the field. Amazing how you go from starter and home run threat to spot back. When AE went in the game Saturday I was like who the hell is that? Took me a minute to realize it was AE.

really want to see Frostee at 100% this week...we need him

Did anyone see how agitated Calais was at the end of the game when they took out Frostee and put in Stinson? They called a timeout and CC came towards the sideline yelling and pointing at one of the coaches. To me it seemed as if he was pissed that they subbed Frostee out.

I just think he didn't play for maybe 2 reasons. One was that they couldn't get anything going in the run game or he was put in the dog house because of that pass he got that he didn't know he was getting. I hope we see more of him this weekend as he is a threat as a receiver. Like someone else said, I would love to see DJ and AE on the same play sometime.

No kidding regarding the toes. So small and hurt so much, but then again, look what a bad tooth can do to you. lol

Last Saturday night, Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer didn’t seem like himself. Comments from coach Bruce Arians suggested that the gravity of the situation — Palmer had never won a playoff game — played a role in his failure to throw the ball down the field. There also could a physical component to it.

Albert Breer of NFL Media reports that the team noticed accuracy issues in the divisional round arising from a dislocated finger Palmer suffered in the regular season.

“If fair to say Palmer’s finger’s been a little more of an issue than he’s let on,” Breer writes, adding that it has looked better in practice this week.
