Kolb expects to play against Cowboys on Sunday

PHOENIX – Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kevin Kolb expects to return to the field on Sunday against the Cowboys.

“I feel really good. It was good to get back in the action. Obviously, we’ll see tomorrow how it feels after a full day like that, but I have full intention of playing,” said Kolb after going through his first full practice Wednesday since returning form injury.

Kolb has missed four games since suffering a toe injury against Baltimore and will need to shake the rust off quickly to face a tough Cowboys defense.

“They’re playing well now on both sides of the ball and leading their division. They’re front seven is as good as anybody’s and cause a lot of disturbance. It’ll be a true test for us.”

“I’m going to have to do extra preparation and make sure that I’m focused and ready every snap out there on the field. We just need to play our own game and focus on the details of our own offense and try to simplify things and do them right,” said Kolb.

It was frustrating for Kolb to suffer the toe injury when he did as he’s struggled to grasp the Cardinals offense in his first season with the team.

“We still don’t feel like offensively we’ve played an entire game as a complete unit and that’s a big deal of ours.”

“We need to get to that point so we can see how good we can be. We feel like we’re getting better in all phases,” said Kolb.

It will help that Kolb makes his return at home in the friendly confines of University of Phoenix stadium.

“We’ve been on the road now for what seems like a couple months,” said Kolb.
