Cardinals getting healthy as they head to Indianapolis

The Arizona Cardinals appear to be in a good place with their health.

According to head coach Jonathan Gannon after their preseason-opening 16-14 loss to the New Orleans Saints, no player was ruled out during the game because of an injury. Receiver Chris Moore was seen going to the locker room with a trainer but he later returned.

On Monday, Gannon said, “we’re actually getting healthy as go the Midwest.”

A few players were nursing injuries before the preseason opener, missing practices. That included defensive lineman Justin Jones, cornerbacks Garrett Williams and Max Melton and running back Emari Demercado. None of them played on Saturday against the Saints. Offensive lineman Jon Gaines, coming back from a torn ACL, has practiced but did not play. Receiver Zay Jones and center Hjalte Froholdt had been injured but returned to practice last week, although neither played.

The Cardinals head to Indy and will practice Tuesday and Wednesday with the Colts and will play their second preseason game on Saturday.
