Two Arizona Cardinals defensive lineman were questionable to play against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday after missing practice Friday.

Sunday morning it was confirmed that both defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche (foot) and defensive end Markus Golden (knee) will be inactive for the Cardinals as they seek their first victory of 2018.

Bene Benwikere (knee), Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring, back), Corey Peters (elbow), Jamar Taylor (back) and John Wetzel (shoulder) were all marked as active despite being tagged with a questionable game status after missing practice time during the week.

For the 49ers, two wide receivers have been ruled out including Dante Pettis (knee) and Marquise Goodwin (hamstring, quadricep). 

The 49ers will also be without cornerback Jimmie Ward (hamstring) who was listed as questionable. Cornerback Richard Sherman (calf) was questionable throughout the week but will be suited up to play.

Three offensive lineman who were questionable for San Francisco will all be active. Tackle Joe Staley (knee), center Weston Richburg (knee) and tackle Mike McGlinchey (knee) will all be available to block for running back Matt Breida who was designated active despite a shoulder injury.
