The Arizona Cardinals wrapped up their week of practice on Friday and released their final injury report. They have questions on the offensive line and four players in all have been ruled out.
Nine players in all have a game designation as they get ready to take on the Houston Texans on the road on Sunday.
The details of their final injury report are below.

Ruled out
S Joey Blount (knee), RB Emari Demercado (toe), DL Jonathan Ledbetter (shoulder), WR Zach Pascal (hamstring)
Blount, Ledbetter and Pascal were all unable to practice at all during the week, so their absence was not surprising. However, the Cardinals will miss Demercado again for the third straight week. He was limited for two days and then was unable to go at all on Friday.
That means Keaontay Ingram will back up James Conner and newly added Michael Carter hopefully can have a role.
Questionable
OL Trystan Colon (calf), OL D. Humphries (ankle), DL Kevin Strong (knee), LB Zeke Turner (hamstring), WR Michael Wilson (shoulder)
Colon and Humphries both practiced all week on a limited basis. If Humphries can’t go, Kelvin Beachum will again start at left tackle. FOur different players have started at left guard this season. Last week, it was Carter O’Donnell.
Wilson had the shoulder injury pop up on Friday. He was not on the injury report until Friday and was limited.
No game designation
RB Michael Carter (Thursday rest), LB Jesse Luketa (ankle)
Carter got to Arizona Thursday, didn’t practice then and got work on Friday. We will see if he has done enough to be active on Sunday.
Luketa was a full participant on Friday after being limited for two days.
