The Arizona Cardinals have officially ruled out two players for Monday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys

The Arizona Cardinals released their latest injury report on Saturday afternoon.  As expected, receiver John Brown and left tackle D.J. Humprhies have been ruled out for Monday Night Football against the Dallas Cowboys.

There was a little hope one or both of them could improve in time for Monday night but in reality it never really seemed like they were close.  For each of them, it’s wait until next week and see what happens.

For the rest of the players on the injury report, quarterback Carson Palmer practiced in full after resting on Friday.  He was not injured but if you sit out practice, you must appear on the report.

Good news on the Karlos Dansby front.  He was limited on Friday but practiced in full on Saturday. The linebacker is expected to play on Monday night.

The rest of the players on the injury report on Saturday were listed as limited in practice and are officially questionable for Monday night.  That includes guard Mike Iupati, receiver J.J. Nelson, tight end Jermaine Gresham, and linebacker Deone Bucannon.

At this point unless something drastic changes, expect Gresham to play.  They released Jim Dray earlier in the week, an indication the Cardinals expect Gresham to suit up Monday night.

We’ll have to wait until Monday to determine whether Gresham along with Iupati, Nelson, and Bucannon will play or will be inactive. There have been no other corresponding moves to suggest that any of these players will be out on Monday.

The Cardinals are being careful with Bucannon as he’s been injured twice.  They need Nelson in a bad way with Brown being out.  Nelson was the NFC Offensive Player of the Week last week in Indianapolis with five receptions for 120-yards and a touchdown.
