Injuries
The Cardinals were banged up a bit last week and will be once again missing offensive lineman Justin Pugh. He is still working through a shoulder injury. He will not play against the Raiders but could be back against the Minnesota Vikings next week.
Time is also running out on receiver Kevin White. His hamstring will keep him out of the game against the Raiders, just as it did last week. With the emergence of Trent Sherfield, White’s days could be numbered.
Cornerback Budda Baker has been nursing an injury but no word on playing time Thursday. We will get to see rookie receiver Andy Isabella for the first time this preseason. He missed the Chargers game in week one.
Also don’t look for linebacker Haason Reddick anytime soon. He is likely still not going to play until the regular season starts.
Additional game information
If you are headed to the game, parking lots open at 1:00 pm. Please remember game is at 5:00 p.m due to national television.
Do not wait until the last minute to head out the door. Traffic to the west side is bad on its own without mixing in an afternoon game during rush hour. Allow for plenty of time.
The next home game will be Sunday September 8th against the Detroit Lions. The Cardinals break camp on Saturday and will play their next two games on the road at Minnesota and Denver.
