Stills did not practice the past two days as he is combatting a knee injury. Arizona’s 213th pick in this year’s draft played in 15-of- 16 games, had 3.5 sacks and 47 tackles in his first season as a Cardinal.
After suffering an ACL tear earlier this season, Williams is officially done for the remainder of the Cardinals’ schedule with an ankle injury. Before his injury in Arizona’s 35-31 win over Philadelphia Eagles last week, Williams had an interception and 23 tackles in nine games during his rookie campaign.
Both have been on the Cardinals’ injury report for the past two days and will now head into the offseason earlier than expected.
Arizona and Seattle clash on Sunday at 2:25 p.m. on FOX.
