Melton (illness) has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. Melton has been under the weather all week, and while he was initially listed with no injury designation Friday, it appears he hasn't been able to shake off his illness. Whether Melton will play Sunday won't be officially known until the Cardinals post their inactive list approximately 90 minutes before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Melton (illness) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports. Melton was added to the Cardinals' injury report Thursday after recording a DNP due to an illness. However, the rookie corner from Rutgers practiced in full Friday, suggesting that he's moved past his illness in time for Sunday's divisional matchup. With Melton back at full health, he's expected to serve as one of Arizona's top backup corners in Week 12.

Melton (illness) did not participate at the Cardinals' practice Thursday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports. Melton popped up on the practice report with an undisclosed illness Thursday, forcing him to sit out. The cornerback will look to return to practice Friday, but if he is ultimately unavailable for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks, Kei'Trel Clark would stand to see an increase in workload at cornerback.

Melton (neck) was considered to be a limited participant at the Cardinals' walkthrough Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. Melton produced nine total tackles (eight solo), a forced fumble and a pass defensed in Arizona's 17-15 win over the Chargers on Monday, picking up an apparent neck injury in the process. The cornerback will have two more chances to log a full session before the team's Week 8 contest in Miami on Sunday.
