UNDATED (AP) — Quarterback Kyler Murray and All-Pro receiver DeAndre Hopkins were both at practice for the Arizona Cardinals Wednesday in a sign the team’s top two playmakers might be ready to return after a three-game absence.
Murray is dealing with a sprained ankle while Hopkins has a hamstring injury. Coach Kliff Kingsbury said Murray and Hopkins were both “limited” during Wednesday’s workout.

—The New York Giants’ quarterback Daniel Jones status is iffy after sustaining a neck injury. If Jones cannot play, veteran Mike Glennon will start for New York, which signed Jake Fromm off the Bills practice squad as an insurance policy.
— The Chiefs activated veteran offensive lineman Kyle Long from the physically unable to perform list this week and he could be on the field Sunday night against Denver. Long fractured what’s called the tibial plateau in his knee during a June workout. The Chiefs created space for him by putting running back Jerick McKinnon and defensive tackle Khalen Saunders on injured reserve.
— While Justin Fields returned to practice for the Chicago Bears, Andy Dalton got the first-team snaps today. Whether the prized rookie or veteran will start at quarterback Sunday when the NFC West-leading Arizona Cardinals visit Soldier Field remains to be seen.
— Jalen Hurts said he’s “ready to go” and his ankle injury won’t affect his performance. The second-year quarterback is coming off his worst game as a pro. He threw three interceptions in a 13-7 loss to the Giants. Former Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew is Hurts’ backup but hasn’t taken a snap this season.
