Jonathan Ward - Returns from injury Ward (ankle) carried the ball three times for 17 yards and also caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Friday's 17-10 preseason loss to the Chiefs.
Impact Ward injured his ankle after a healthy workload in the opening preseason matchup against the Cowboys, but the rotational back was able to make a return Friday. The 23-year-old is in a tight competition with 2020 seventh-round pick, Eno Benjamin for the No. 3 job behind committee-combo Chase Edmonds and James Conner.

Maxx Williams - Doesn't play Friday Williams didn't play in Friday's preseason defeat to the Chiefs due to a non-COVID-19 illness, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The Cardinals' No. 1 tight end, Williams logged seven offensive snaps in the team's exhibition opener last Friday en route to one catch (on one target) for four yards. Considering he's compiled 23 receptions and 28 targets in 25 career contests with the team, he's not a candidate to be a regular in Arizona's passing attack. But Darrell Daniels is the only other TE to have logged time with the Cards, leaving Williams at the top of the depth chart, when healthy.

DeAndre Hopkins - Another DNP on Friday Hopkins (undisclosed) didn't see the field during Friday's preseason loss to the Chiefs, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact Hopkins hasn't been on the practice field much during training camp and even missed all the sessions leading up to Friday's exhibition, his second DNP this month. However, he doesn't need many reps to be ready for Week 1, when he'll still have Kyler Murray under center and a refurbished receiving corps around him, namely A.J. Green, Christian Kirk and rookie Rondale Moore. Despite the increased competition for targets, Hopkins is the unquestioned No. 1 WR in Arizona after putting up a 115-1,407-6 line in his first year with the team in 2020.

A.J. Green - Goes without catch Friday Green (undisclosed) couldn't haul in his only target during Friday's preseason defeat to the Chiefs.
Impact Green made his debut with the Cardinals after sitting out a part of training camp with an undisclosed injury. With DeAndre Hopkins (undisclosed) out Friday, however, the first-team offense has yet to be intact through two exhibitions. With quarterback Kyler Murray a question mark to suit up in preseason Week 3, we may not see the revamped receiving corps together until the season opener Sunday, Sept. 12 at Tennessee, where Hopkins, Green, Christian Kirk and rookie Rondale Moore will be the top four wide receivers in some order.

James Conner - Makes debut with Arizona Conner (toe) had two carries for one yard during Friday's preseason loss to the Chiefs.
Impact Fellow running back Chase Edmonds got the start and first carry of the game before Conner received the next two touches given to Cardinals RBs. Considering Edmonds is a holdover and Conner has more experience overall, the preceding breakdown of touches may be the status quo in Arizona's offense this season. Conner, a fifth-year pro, signed a one-year deal in the offseason, but he spent most of it in recovery mode due to toe surgery. Then, he missed some practices over the last week due to a stay on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Now that Conner is healthy and available, though, Edmonds and Conner enter the coming campaign as a 1A-1B backfield pairing.

Rondale Moore - Busy in preseason loss Moore secured three of five targets for 15 yards, rushed once for nine yards and returned one kickoff for 11 yards in the Cardinals' 17-10 preseason loss to the Chiefs on Friday ni...
Impact The rookie had logged five targets in his pro debut against the Cowboys last Friday, and he saw a similar level of opportunity versus the Chiefs while playing the entirety of the first half. Moore is primed to open the season potentially battling Christian Kirk for No. 3 receiver reps, and given the pass-centric nature of the Cardinals' offense, even No. 4 duties could help him generate some serviceable numbers early in his first season.

Kyler Murray - Brief cameo in Friday's loss Murray completed one of four passes for two yards and rushed once for eight yards in the Cardinals' 17-10 preseason loss to the Chiefs on Friday night. He also fumbled once, but i...
Impact Heading into the contest, conventional wisdom was Murray would be used sparingly, and that's precisely what came to pass. Murray ultimately played on the first two possessions and took two sacks on his final drive, fumbling on a hit by Chris Jones but not turning the ball over. The stilted performance naturally has no bearing on Murray's regular-season prospects, which remain significantly elevated given his arsenal of pass-catching weapons.
