Arizona Cardinals' season will continue without defensive lineman Justin Jones, who is sidelined for the remainder due to a triceps injury. In response, the team has moved Jones to injured reserve and brought in Naquan Jones as his replacement. Coach Jonathan Gannon is optimistic about Justin Jones’s recovery and assures that the team is well-prepared to manage in his absence. Tight end Trey McBride remains under concussion protocol after a collision in the last game. Right tackle Jackson Barton is being evaluated on a day-to-day basis because of a toe injury. The status of backup Kelvin Beachum, who is dealing with a hamstring issue, will be reviewed over the week. Coach Gannon commended Charlie Heck for his performance when he stepped in for Jackson Barton during the fourth quarter. Gannon highlighted Heck's experience and professionalism as key strengths.
