Returns to lead team in targets McBride (ribs) turned nine targets into six receptions for 53 yards in Sunday's 24-23 win over San Francisco.

Impact McBride overcame a pair of health roadblocks (one of which had cost him a week of action) to return to Arizona's starting lineup against the 49ers in Week 5. The 2022 second-round pick wound up leading his team in targets while producing a solid fantasy line for managers in Sunday's upset victory. McBride is averaging four receptions and 43.8 yards in four active games this season, making him a reliable option at a shallow position heading into next Sunday's tilt against Green Bay.

Active as expected Sunday McBride (ribs) is active for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the 49ers.

Impact McBride had an eventful week as it pertains to his health following a Week 4 absence due to a concussion, managing to clear protocol while practicing in full both Thursday and Friday and entering the weekend sans an injury designation. However, McBride was added to the injury report Saturday with a ribs injury, but subsequent reporting indicated the talented tight end was in line to suit up Sunday. His active status now official, McBride will slide back into his unquestioned No. 1 tight end role for the divisional clash against San Francisco, sending Elijah Higgins back down to No. 2 slotting at the position.

In line to suit up Sunday McBride (ribs) is expected to be available for Sunday's Week 5 clash with San Francisco, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact McBride missed Week 4 against Washington while in concussion protocol but was able to return to full practice sessions Thursday and Friday during Week 5 prep. However, he was a surprise addition to the injury report Saturday due to an injury to his ribs and was given a questionable tag. It appears that McBride will be able to play through the issue Sunday, ensuring that the Cardinals have one of their top pass catchers for a key NFC West battle with the 49ers.

In line to suit up Sunday McBride (ribs) is listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday versus San Francisco, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact McBride missed Week 4 against Washington while in concussion protocol but was able to return to full practice sessions Thursday and Friday during Week 5 prep. However, he surprisingly popped back up on the injury report Saturday due to an injury to his ribs and was given a questionable tag. Despite the fact that he's now nursing a new injury, McBride looks like he will be able to play through the issue Sunday, ensuring that the Cardinals have one of their top pass catchers for a key NFC West battle with the 49ers. The Cardinals won't officially clear McBride to play until they release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Surprise addition to injury report McBride was added to the injury report Saturday with a ribs injury and is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the 49ers, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact McBride cleared concussion protocol earlier this week after missing Week 4 against the Commanders, but he's now been added to the injury report with a ribs issue. Elijah Higgins was the defacto starting tight end in his absence last week catching two passes for 12 yards, but it's hard to gauge future playing time expectations given the Cardinals had effectively lost that game by halftime. Expect more information to emerge regarding the new injury well before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff against the 49ers.

Questionable with rib injury The Cardinals list McBride as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers due to a rib injury.

Impact McBride cleared concussion protocol earlier this week after missing the team's Week 4 loss to the Commanders, but despite being a full participant in practice Thursday and Friday, he apparently picked up a rib injury at some point along the way. Elijah Higgins was the de facto starting tight end in his absence last week and would likely see most of the playing time if McBride were to miss a second straight game. Expect more clarity on McBride's status to emerge when the Cardinals release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Removed from injury report McBride (concussion) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at San Francisco, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact McBride cleared concussion protocol and managed full practice participation both Thursday and Friday. He's back in as one of Kyler Murray's top targets after missing a Week 4 loss to the Commanders.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play Coach Jonathan Gannon said Friday that McBride (concussion) will play Sunday at San Francisco, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact It sounds like McBride has either cleared concussion protocol or is on track to do so at some point Friday. He missed a Week 4 loss to Washington after suffering a concussion in a loss to the Lions a week prior.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Full practice Thursday McBride (concussion) practiced fully Thursday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact After opening the week as limited Wednesday, McBride returned to full participation one day later. Per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site, McBride also didn't have on a yellow non-contact jersey while running routes and catching passes from QB Kyler Murray, signifying that he's closing in on emerging from the concussion protocol. Clearance from an independent neurologist awaits for McBride, though, so his listing on Friday's injury report will be telling in that regard. The third-year tight end is seeking to miss just one game as a result of the head injury that he sustained Week 3 against the Lions.

OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Officially limited Wednesday McBride (concussion) was limited at practice Wednesday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Coach Jonathan Gannon told Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com earlier Wednesday that McBride was in line to practice and added that the tight end would be coming out of the protocol for head injuries. Considering McBride operated with practice limitations, he's still embedded in the protocol, but Gershman noted that he wasn't wearing a yellow non-contact jersey, indicating he at least can take hits. McBride will need to gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to play Sunday at San Francisco, even if he's able to log a full practice by week's end.

Returning to practice Wednesday Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that McBride (concussion) is slated to practice, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Gannon indicated that McBride will be 'coming out of the concussion protocol,' but it remains unclear whether the standout tight end has yet gained full clearance. In any case, McBride getting back on the practice field represents a positive step in the right direction after he was forced to miss Arizona's 42-14 loss to the Commanders in Week 4. McBride will need to be fully cleared, including via an independent neurologist, in order to suit up on the road in San Francisco on Sunday.

Arizona Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon provides key update on Trey McBride's concussion Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride missed Sunday's game against the Washington Commanders with a concussion.

OCTOBER 1 • AZCENTRAL.COM

Still in concussion protocol Coach Jonathan Gannon acknowledged Monday that McBride remains in the concussion protocol, but he's "looking good" in his recovery, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact McBride sustained a concussion during the Cardinals' Week 3 loss to the Lions, and he wasn't able to practice last week before the team ruled him out ahead of this past Sunday's game against the Commanders. Arizona won't reconvene for practice until Wednesday, when the team will post its first injury report of Week 5. At that point, McBride's ability, or lack thereof, to take part in drills may forecast his odds to suit up Sunday at San Francisco. In McBride's place Week 4, TEs Elijah Higgins and Tip Reiman served as co-starters, but only Higgins (2-12-0 on three targets) made an impact in the box score.

Out this week McBride (concussion) will not play Sunday against the Commanders, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Coach Jonathan Gannon made the announcement Friday morning, with McBride still unable to practice after taking a bit hit and entering concussion protocol during last week's 20-13 loss to the Lions. His Week 4 absence leaves Elijah Higgins and Tip Reiman as Arizona's top tight ends, with Higgins being more likely to draw enough targets to generate fantasy interest.

SEPTEMBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Still not practicing McBride (concussion) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact McBride's lack of involvement Thursday doesn't come as much of a surprise after he wasn't present during the media-access portion of the session, per Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. The third-year pro thus seems to be trending in the wrong direction due to the fact he hasn't made any noticeable progress through the concussion protocol. Ultimately, the Cardinals may make a ruling on McBride's availability on Friday's injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders. If he eventually sits out this weekend, fellow TE Elijah Higgins would be the primary beneficiary for fantasy purposes, though rookie third-rounder Tip Reiman may actually see more snaps than Higgins due to his blocking prowess.
