Plenty of game-time decisions for Cardinals on Sunday

Sep 23, 2011, 8:39 PM | Updated: 10:32 pm

The Cardinals could get some of their injured players back Sunday.

Both running back Larod Stephens-Howling and linebacker Daryl Washington missed last week’s game with injuries suffered in Week 1.

Stephens-Howling has a hand injury while Washington dealing with a calf injury. Both will be game-time decisions, according to head coach Ken Whisenhunt.

Whisenhunt is hopeful that both will be available for Sunday’s game against the Seahawks.

“They’re participating more in practice, so they’ll be a decision we make on Sunday,” Whisenhunt said. “But I’m excited to see those guys back on the field.”

Another game-time decision will be starting running back Beanie Wells. Wells had hamstring tightness earlier in the week and was limited in practice Thursday.

“Beanie is doing alright,” Whisenhunt said. “We’ll see how he progresses and make a decision on Sunday.”

Whisenhunt said the Cardinals were being careful when it came to dealing with Wells’ hamstring and is confident in backup Chester Taylor filling in if Wells isn’t able to play.
