Story begins below————
The Arizona Cardinals, coming off their bye week and in first place in the NFC West at 6-4, put first place on the line in Seattle as they face the 5-5 Seahawks. Both teams have injuries to consider. The Seahawks are getting safety Rayshawn Jenkins back from injured reserve.
The Cardinals will be without a starting safety, but could get their first game action from one of their first-round draft picks.

OL Jonah Williams injury update
Williams as activated from injured reserve this week. He has been out since the first quarter of Week 1. We will see how he is used. Kelvin Beachum has played very well in his place starting at right tackle. It would not be surprising to see both getting snaps in Seattle.
DL Darius Robinson injury update
Robinson had a full week of practice for the first time. He has been off IR for a while but has not played. He might get to make his NFL debut.
TE Noah Fant injury update
Fant will be a close call, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, although he did participate fully in Friday’s practice.
