Cardinals Place Will Hernandez on IR, Activate Rookie Hayden Conner for Week 13

Hernandez is ineligible to return before Week 17, leaving Arizona short on offensive-line depth.

Overview

  • Arizona announced the moves Saturday ahead of its road game against the Buccaneers.
  • Will Hernandez went to injured reserve with hip and knee issues after appearing in seven games this season.
  • Sixth-round rookie Hayden Conner was activated from IR following a preseason knee injury and could debut behind likely right guard Isaiah Adams.
  • The Cardinals elevated tight end Pharaoh Brown and linebacker Channing Tindall for Week 13, with Brown reaching his three-game standard elevation limit.
  • Arizona’s line already includes Valentin Senn and Christian Jones on IR, intensifying depth concerns for a 3–8 team.
