The Cardinals signed Green to the practice squad Wednesday.

The undrafted rookie was part of Arizona's 90-man training camp roster but was unable to crack the 53-man version in late August. Green has returned to the Cardinals as a member of the practice squad and would be a top candidate to be elevated to the active roster should the Cardinals require depth at wide receiver.

Turpin (foot) was a limited participant Wednesday in his return to practice, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

This is Turpin's first participation in a practice or game since Week 4, and it comes on the same day as CeeDee Lamb's (ankle) return to practice. The Cowboys still have a lengthy injury report, but things are at least trending upward on the offensive side, with G Tyler Booker (ankle) also returning to practice Wednesday.

Harrison (concussion) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Harrison was diagnosed with a concussion during this past Sunday's loss at Indianapolis, and while Jonathan Gannon told Dani Sureck of the team's official site on Wednesday that the second-year wide receiver remains in the protocol for head injuries, his limited listing indicates he at least has made some progress through it. In order to play Sunday against the Packers, though, Harrison will need to gain clearance from an independent neurologist. Arizona's receiving corps is particularly banged up at the moment, as Michael Wilson (foot, limited) and Zay Jones (knee, DNP) also are tending to injuries.

The Cardinals signed Deguara from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday.

Deguara's addition to the active roster gives the Cardinals depth at tight end after Travis Vokolek (neck) was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. With Vokolek and Tip Reiman (ankle) both on IR, Deguara is slated to serve as Arizona's third-string tight end behind Trey McBride and Elijah Higgins. Deguara played in the Cardinals' Week 2 win against the Panthers, when he logged one tackle while playing 14 snaps on special teams.

Olave was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hip injury.

It's the first report this season of any limitations in practice, likely reflecting a new injury suffered during Sunday's 25-19 loss to the Patriots. Olave's practice participation at the start of Week 7, even in a limited capacity, suggests he's on track to play this Sunday against the Bears. He's accounted for a whopping 32.2 percent of New Orleans' targets this season, but with meager averages of 8.8 yards per catch and 5.3 yards per target. Olave did finally hit on a big play this past Sunday, catching a deep pass for 53 yards on the first snap of the game against New England.

Diggs (chest) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Diggs was on the field for 59 percent of the Patriots' snaps on offense in this past Sunday's 25-19 win over the Saints, catching all three of his targets for 28 yards, which represented a dip in production for him after back-to-back 100-plus yard efforts in Weeks 4 and 5. So far there's nothing to suggest that Diggs' availability for this weekend's game against the Titans is in any danger, but his status should be monitored nonetheless given his 'limited' listing Wednesday.

Jacobs was limited in practice Wednesday due to an illness.

After a somewhat slow start to the season, Jacobs has been making the most of his workload over the last two games, combining for 307 yards from scrimmage and four rushing TDs on 49 touches. As the Packers kick off Week 7 prep, he's dealing with an ailment, but his ability to practice in some capacity Wednesday indicates he isn't in much danger of missing Sunday's contest at Arizona. Jacobs will have two more chances to get back to all activity ahead of the weekend.

The Cardinals designated Nolen (calf) to return from the reserve/PUP list Wednesday.

The 16th overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft has been sidelined since the offseason due to a calf injury, but he has progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to practice. Nolen was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, but he's far from a guarantee to make his NFL regular-season debut against the Packers on Sunday, even if he were to practice in full over the next two days. The Cardinals have 21 days to activate Nolen from the PUP list.

Bowers (knee) isn't practicing Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Bowers is standing on the sideline in shorts, which comes as no surprise after reports this past weekend suggested he's unlikely to return for Week 7 at Kansas City. He initially suffered a PCL injury and bone bruise in Week 1, and it now seems the goal may be a return after the Raiders' Week 8 bye. TE Michael Mayer filled in admirably during Sunday's 20-10 win over Tennessee, catching five passes for 50 yards and a touchdown on a team-high seven targets (while playing 91 percent of snaps on offense).

Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Smith (illness) will not practice Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the team's official site reports.

Smith didn't record a rush attempt during Kansas City's win over the Lions in Week 6, though he did secure three of four targets for 21 yards. The rookie seventh-round pick has played exactly six offensive snaps in back-to-back games. Smith will still have two more opportunities to get back on the practice field ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Raiders, though if he were to miss any time it would likely pave the way for Elijah Mitchell to make his regular-season debut as a reserve backfield option behind Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt.
