GLENDALE – The Arizona Cardinals released their full injury report and practice participation ahead of the team’s Week 5 matchup vs. the Tennessee Titans. The list is a long one for Arizona, but inspires some hope for a couple of players to return to the lineup on Sunday. One of the names being rookie cornerback Will Johnson, who has missed the last two weeks due to a groin injury.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Johnson was limited in Thursday’s practice, which is much better than the past couple weeks. Players like Zay Jones and Simi Fehoko went from limited to full practice participation, after both wide receivers were struggling with concussion protocol.

The lone player to not practice was Darius Robinson, who recorded his first sack of the season in Week 4. Robinson has had a rough start to his sophomore season, but his performance last Thursday looked to turn some of the noise around. However, a cryptic Instagram post by Robinson has raised some eyebrows. The captioned was, “I trust the next chapter because I know the author.”
Head coach Jonathan Gannon stated that the team will see how he progresses throughout the week, before making a decision on Sunday’s game.
The final noteworthy addition to the injury report was defensive lineman Bilal Nichols, as he has returned from the PUP list and gets his first taste of practice during the 2025 season. Nichols has been limited the past two practices, but his return to the practice field is a good sign for how he is progress from his neck injury.
