Anquan Boldin: Ankle Getting Better?

Update: Boldin (right ankle) should be at or near 100 percent in Week 10, Arizona head coach Ken Whisenhunt told the Cardinals’ official site on Monday.

Recommendation: Whisenhunt’s decision to rest Boldin in Week 9 seems to have paid off. The Cardinals won handily and Boldin should finally be able to put this lingering injury in the past. Whisenhunt added that he isn’t concerned about the critical comments that Boldin made after Sunday’s game, including that Whisenhunt wasn’t “man enough” to inform him that he wasn’t in the Cardinals’ Week 9 lineup. Whisenhunt likes that Boldin is a competitor that wants to play. There’s a big difference, though, between wanting to play and being openly disrespectful as Boldin was. There is growing speculation that Boldin—who has been feuding with the Cardinals’ organization for the last two years—will get his wish and be traded this offseason.
