DRC Declares Himself 100%; Other Injury Updates

Update: NFL.com's Jason La Canfora has reported that Anquan Boldin may miss Sunday's game.

Boldin is highly unlikely to play in Sunday's game, a source with knowledge of the situation told NFL Network's Jason La Canfora.

The Cardinals received some good news Friday when cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie declared himself to be 100% and said he will play in Sunday's game. That's certainly good to hear considering his back ups didn't look promising. This and other injury news was reported earlier by Darren Urban:

Cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (knee, toe) proclaimed himself "100 percent" and frankly looked on the practice field like he had never had an injury. "If I’d sit out, I’d probably go crazy," he said

Calais Campbell looks ready to play on Sunday, and was re-casted with a lighter material. Deuce Lutui and Antrel Rolle also returned to practice. The only significant injured player to miss practice was obviously Anquan Boldin. The status for Boldin remains uncertain and he will likely be a game-time decision. Losing Boldin would be big, but it's certainly not the worst blow the Cardinals could take. Steve Breaston has done a fine job filling in for Q in the past. Boldin does sound like he's doing everything possible to play though:

"It’s tough when you have a high-ankle sprain and an MCL sprain," Boldin added. "If I can go, I will be out there. I am doing everything in my power to make sure I am able to go Sunday. Trust me, if I’m not able to go, it won’t be anything that I didn’t do. I have doctors at my house at night pocking and prodding, acupuncture, everything possible."

And smiled down upon us Cards fans !!!!!! DRC (not to mention the others) is gonna show the Pack what’s up. Now hopefully Q pulls through. I’ve never completely agreed with “some” of his antics in the past, but definitely know our loss if he’s not on the field this Sunday.

Gotta love Q’s attitude, although he shouldn’t have been injured to begin with.

What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.

I'm not sure I buy into the playing possum'

senario as much as some others do, but wouldn’t the same logic dictate that Whiz would leak that Boldin is a no go when he actually will play?

Most reports have been saying that he likely won't play

Remember that teams can’t lie on the injury report that officially is listed to other teams… At least they aren’t supposed to.
