That's the story, at least. After practicing Thursday, it seems increasingly probable that the wide receiver will be healthy enough to start at wide receiver, along with -- expectedly -- Larry Fitzgerald.

"I just tried to get out and test it out a little bit, you know, run around a little bit," Boldin said. "It's still a little sore, but I was able to do a couple of things on it. Unless anything happens, I should be out there Sunday."

The matchup is a crucial one against the New Orleans Saints and the Cardinals lack depth at receiver, so it's obvious Boldin's presence will be felt.
