Fantasy Injury Updates: Latest news on Tee Higgins, Marquise Brown, DJ Moore more WRs impacting Week 15 start-or-sit calls Tee Higgins, Marquise Brown, DJ Moore, and Tyler Boyd headline the notable wide receivers who are listed as "questionable" going into Sunday...
Listed as questionable Brown (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Denver, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact Brown's return to a limited practice Friday puts him on track to avoid the inactive list approximately ahead of a 4:05 ET kickoff Sunday. While not much has gone right in Arizona this year, the Cards at least have a strong WR duo in Brown and DeAndre Hopkins to help out backup QB Colt McCoy. With top cornerback Patrick Surtain likely to shadow Hopkins for at least part of the game, Brown figures to run a lot of his routes lined up across from rookie Damarri Mathis and 31-year-old K'Waun Williams (both have been solid this year, but not on Surtain's level).

Returns from illness Brown (illness) returned to practice Friday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Brown missed just one practice and likely will be fine for Sunday's game in Denver. The problems for him this week are a tough Broncos secondary and the presence of backup Colt McCoy under center for Arizona instead of Kyler Murray (ACL).

Comes down with illness Brown was a non-participant at Thursday's practice due to an illness, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact After avoiding the injury report entirely Wednesday, Brown made an appearance one day later. Illnesses can be fickle, with a variety of recovery timelines, so his status will be one to watch closely as the week goes on. If Brown enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game at Denver, a 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff allows for less players to pivot to if he ends up inactive.

Four grabs in Week 14 loss Brown secured four of eight targets for 34 yards in the Cardinals' 27-13 loss to the Patriots on Monday night.
Impact Brown's numbers were naturally affected by the fact Kyler Murray exited the game on the third play of the game with what appears to be a serious knee injury. The speedster's ideal route tree lends itself much better to Murray than veteran quarterback Colt McCoy, who tends to frequently operate in the short and mid-range areas of the field. Brown's catch and yardage totals were his lowest since Week 1, but he'll aim to bounce back irrespective of who's under center in a Week 15 road matchup against the Broncos.

Murray's injury is the worst part of Cards' loss to Patriots

Six catches in return Brown recorded six receptions on eight targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Chargers.
Impact Brown returned to action for the first time since Week 6 and immediately led Arizona in targets and receptions. His yardage total was held in check as he worked in short areas of the field. That limited him to only 5.8 yards per target while his longest reception of the day went for 13 yards. The Cardinals will now head into their Week 13 bye, though Brown should be back at near full strength by the time the team takes on New England in Week 14.

Back on active roster The Cardinals activated Brown (foot) from injured reserve Saturday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Impact With the anticipation over, the Cardinals finally will have the wide receiver duo of DeAndre Hopkins and Brown available in the same game for the first time this season Sunday against the Chargers. Coach Kliff Kingsbury has said that Brown likely will be on a "pitch count" of sorts in his first action since Week 6, according to Urban. Still, Brown's presence could mean for a more potent Arizona offense, as he put together a 43-485-3 line on 64 targets in the first six contests of the campaign.

On track to play Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Friday that he expects Brown (foot) to play Sunday against the Chargers, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact The Cardinals designated Brown for return from injured reserve last Wednesday and had him out on the practice field again this week. Kingsbury said Wednesday that the speedy wideout was likely to be on a pitch count in his first game back after missing more than a month with foot injury, but Brown at least sounds like he's on track to play for the first time since Week 6. The Cardinals will have until 4 p.m. ET on Saturday to officially activate Brown from IR for this weekend's game.

Impact The Cardinals designated Brown for return from IR last Wednesday, but he didn't do enough in practice to get back on the active roster for Monday's eventual loss to the 49ers. Now that he's taking part in drills for a second consecutive week, he may have a better shot to play Sunday, but if he's active he likely won't take on a full allotment of snaps. Arizona's receiving corps is banged up at the moment, with Rondale Moore (groin) expected to miss Week 12 and Greg Dortch (thumb) not taking part in Wednesday's walk-through session. As a result, Brown still could make waves working behind DeAndre Hopkins and potentially ahead of A.J. Green and Robbie Anderson if he's available and if Moore and Dortch aren't.

Not activated Monday Brown (foot) wasn't activated from injured reserve ahead of Monday night's game against the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact The Cardinals designated Brown for return from injured reserve last Wednesday, but the wideout isn't quite ready to suit up for game action and thus will target a potential return Week 12 against the Chargers. In the meantime, look for DeAndre Hopkins -- who is listed as questionable for Monday's contest but trending toward playing, per Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com -- Rondale Moore and A.J. Green to lead the team's Week 11 wideout corps, with Robbie Anderson and Greg Dortch also in the mix.

Not expected to play Monday Brown (foot) isn't expected to be reinstated from injured reserve ahead of Monday's game against the 49ers in Mexico City, Jordan Schultz of TheScore.com reports.
Impact Arizona will have until 4 p.m. ET on Monday to formally decide whether to add Brown to the 53-man roster for the Week 11 contest, but given that the receiver first resumed practicing this past Wednesday after missing the past four games with the left foot injury, it doesn't come as a major surprise that the team is leaning toward holding him out against the 49ers. On a positive note, Schultz relays that Brown is "feeling much better" and hopes to make his return to the lineup Week 12 against the Chargers, though his availability for that contest will hinge on how he fares during the Cardinals' next three practices. Brown's expected absence for at least one more game leaves the Cardinals with DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring), Rondale Moore, A.J. Green, Robbie Anderson and Greg Dortch as their options at receiver.

Mixes into individual drills Brown (foot) took part in some individual drills at Thursday's practice, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Impact After suffering what was initially a potentially season-ending left foot injury in Week 6, Brown has spent nearly a month on injured reserve, from which the Cardinals designated him for return Wednesday. With a 21-day window open to prove his health, he managed to mix into some individual work to begin Week 11 prep, looking crisp running routes and hauling in passes. Brown may not be cleared for Monday's game against the 49ers in Mexico City, but Arizona at least may have a decision to make about bringing him back to the active roster in the coming days.

Could play this week Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Brown (foot) has a chance to play in Monday's game against the 49ers, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Brown was designated to return from injured reserve earlier Wednesday and now will be evaluated on the practice field. If the Cardinals don't deem Brown ready to play Monday, he could make it back for a Week 12 matchup against the Chargers, after which Arizona will go on bye.
NOVEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Cleared for practice Arizona designated Brown (foot) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Impact Brown can return to the practice field as soon as Wednesday, opening a 21-day window before he needs to be activated from IR. The Cardinals presumably hope to have him available well before that window closes, perhaps even as soon as Monday's game against the 49ers. Brown averaged 7.2 catches for 80.8 yards and 0.5 touchdowns over the first six weeks of the season, before missing the past month with a foot injury while DeAndre Hopkins returned from suspension and took over as Arizona's high-volume No. 1 receiver.

Impact Brown was placed on injured reserve Oct. 20 due to a foot injury he suffered Week 6 and was slated to be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks. Per Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com, Kingsbury added that the wideout "is getting to the point where he's going to be day-to-day," but the Cardinals won't rush him back until he's 100 percent. Before the injury, Brown secured 43 of 64 targets for 485 yards and three scores, but all of that production came when DeAndre Hopkins was sidelined due to a suspension.
NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Officially goes to injured reserve The Cardinals placed Brown (foot) on injured reserve Thursday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Impact This move was expected after Brown sustained a foot injury this past Sunday in Seattle that's slated to keep him sidelined for at least one month. He'll thus miss at least the Cardinals' next four games and perhaps more considering the aforementioned timeline. With Brown joining Antoine Wesley (hip) on IR, Arizona's receiving corps now consists of DeAndre Hopkins, Rondale Moore, A.J. Green, Robbie Anderson and Greg Dortch.
OCTOBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Out at least one month Head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Wednesday that Brown (foot) will be sidelined at least one month, Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Brown's expected multi-week absence was confirmed after he received a second opinion on the left foot injury that forced him out in the second half of the Cardinals' Week 6 loss at Seattle. While the nature of the issue isn't known, Brown seems a likely candidate to be placed on injured reserve considering the timeline. In Brown's absence, the recently activated DeAndre Hopkins will resume leading Arizona's passing game, with Rondale Moore, A.J. Green, newcomer Robbie Anderson and Greg Dortch also candidates for targets at wide receiver.
