Kyler Murray, Dan Arnold limited for Cardinals in 1st practice of the week

On Wednesday, the Arizona Cardinals began their week of practice to prepare for their divisional battle against the Los Angeles Rams and released their first injury report of the week. Four players were non-participants and another six were limited, including quarterback Kyler Murray.

Murray continues to deal with the shoulder injury he suffered two games ago against the Seattle Seahawks.

Among those who did not practice were three players who were hurt. Receiver DeAndre Hopkins had the day off, while safety Jalen Thompson (ankle), guard Justin Pugh (ankle) and safety Charles Washington (groin) sat out with injuries.

Washington has dealt with the groin injury for a couple of weeks but was able to play on Sunday. Thompson missed Sunday’s game and Pugh missed a few snaps early in the game on Sunday but finished the game.

Murray’s shoulder did not keep him out of Sunday’s game and won’t likely keep him from playing this week. Limited reps early in the week is simply precautionary. He will likely be a full participant by the end of the week.

Defensive lineman Zach Allen (ankle), defensive lineman Rashard Lawrence (calf) (reactivated from injured reserve on Wednesday), tight end Dan Arnold (knee), cornerback Johnathan Joseph (knee, ankle) and linebacker Tanner Vallejo (concussion) rounded out those who got limited reps.

Offensive lineman Justin Murray, who was inactive on Sunday with a hand injury, was a full participant and might fill in for Pugh at left guard.
