The Arizona Cardinals will be without two of their key pieces on offense in quarterback Kyler Murray and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins when they take on the Carolina Panthers in Week 10.
It marks the second consecutive game both Murray (ankle) and Hopkins (hamstring) have missed.
Murray was seen pregame throwing passes but it apparently wasn’t enough for the QB to get the green light.

Other Cardinals inactives include running back Jonathan Ward (concussion), safety James Wiggins (knee), and offensive linemen Justin Pugh (calf) and Max Garcia (Achilles). Wide receiver Andy Isabella is a healthy scratch for Sunday.
The Cardinals are also without running back Chase Edmonds, who was placed on injured reserve on Saturday with a high ankle sprain.
Wide receiver Rondale Moore, safety Budda Baker and defensive lineman Jordan Phillips, however, are good to for Sunday’s tilt.
For the Panthers, quarterback Cam Newton is officially active after signing with the team earlier this week. Safety Justin Burris and linebacker Brian Burns are also up.
Other Carolina inactives include defensive tackle Phil Hoskins, wide receiver Shi Smith, safety Kenny Robinson, tight end Colin Thompson and cornerbacks Rashaan Melvin and Stantley Thomas-Oliver III.
