Darrell Daniels - Returns from COVID list The Cardinals activated Daniels (undisclosed) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact Daniels spent less than a week clearing the league's COVID-19 protocols. He will resume operating alongside Maxx Williams as one of the Cardinals' top tight ends. Given the timing of his return, Daniels will have plenty of time to ramp up his workload before Friday's exhibition contest against the Chiefs.

James Conner - Removed from COVID-19 list Conner (toe) was removed from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact Conner was on the list for just four days and now can return to practice, though he's reportedly been limited this summer after having toe surgery in the offseason. While an appearance in one of the Cardinals' final two preseason games would help alleviate concerns, it could be tough to get a read on the extent of Conner's regular-season role before Week 1. Chase Edmonds played the first two drives in Arizona's preseason opener and took four touches for 20 yards.

Christian Kirk - Looks healthy Friday Kirk caught his only target for a 34-yard gain in Friday's preseason win over the Cowboys.
Impact The fourth-yard receiver missed practice time earlier in the month due to an undisclosed injury, but Kirk was in the starting lineup Friday and was on the other end of a big Colt McCoy pass during the Cards' second possession. Kirk is being pushed for the No. 3 spot on the depth chart by rookie Rondale Moore, but DeAndre Hopkins (undisclosed) and A.J. Green (undisclosed) are expected to be the focus of the passing game for Arizona during the regular season.

Ito Smith - Sees first action as Cardinal Smith gained six yards on two carries in Friday's preseason win over the Cowboys.
Impact Having only signed with Arizona in the last week, Smith didn't get on the field until late in the fourth quarter, gaining 11 yards on his first tote but then losing five on his second carry. The former Falcon is expected to fill a depth role in the backfield behind Chase Edmonds and James Conner (COVID-19 list/toe), a role that could lead to some regular-season volume given Conner's injury history, but second-year back Eno Benjamin had a big game Friday and could wind up being a serious obstacle to Smith securing the No. 3 spot on the depth chart.
AUGUST 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Eno Benjamin - Makes impact Friday Benjamin carried the ball five times for 50 yards and a touchdown in Friday's preseason win over the Cowboys.
Impact The second-year player was the third back in the game for the Cards, following starter Chase Edmonds and Jonathan Ward, but when Ward suffered an ankle injury it became Benjamin's turn to shine. He got Arizona on the board with a six-yard TD run in the second quarter, then set up a field goal on the first drive of the second half with a 38-yard scamper. The 2020 seventh-round pick didn't see a snap last year in the regular season, and there's no guarantee he does in 2021 either with James Conner (COVID-19 list/toe) and Ito Smith also fighting for touches in the backfield, but if Benjamin continues to impress in the preseason he could force the coaching staff to make some tough roster decisions.
AUGUST 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Chase Edmonds - Brief action in preseason opener Edmonds gained 10 yards on three carries and caught his only target for an additional 10 yards in Friday's preseason win over the Cowboys.
Impact The 25-year-old was only on the field for Arizona's first two drives of the night, but he flashed his three-down skill set before exiting. Interestingly, he got replaced in the red zone by Jonathan Ward (ankle) on the Cards' second drive (and first scoring drive), but that isn't necessarily a hint at Edmonds' usage during the regular season. He's expected to form a backfield tandem with James Conner (COVID-19/toe) come Week 1, but Conner's inability to stay healthy during his career could lead to Edmonds seeing a big workload at times.
