GLENDALE, Ariz. — Arizona Cardinals starting right guard Justin Pugh is available to play with a heavy wrap on his left hand Thursday against the Denver Broncos, leaving the offensive line without only starting left guard Mike Iupati.
But Pugh didn’t appear with the first unit on the opening possession.
Guard Daniel Munyer and tackle John Wetzel started for Pugh and Iupati.
Pugh injured his hand last Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings and left that game. He was questionable coming into the home game at State Farm Stadium and was seen working out with a black protective wrap in the pregame warmups.
Cornerback Jamar Taylor (back), the only other questionable player on the Week 7 injury report, is available.
