Cardinals Test-Drive Newfound Confidence Against the Defending Super Bowl Champ Seahawks

Trey McBride’s back ailment is expected to be short-term, and the Cardinals also got full practice returns from Will Johnson and Blake Gillikin.

  • The Arizona Cardinals listed tight end Trey McBride with a back ailment ahead of Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. The rest designation suggests the injury is minor and unlikely to linger.
  • Both the Cardinals and Seahawks enter Sunday's contest with 1-0 records following opening week victories. Arizona defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 26-14, while Seattle beat the New England Patriots 13-10.
  • McBride, a fifth-year tight end, is considered matchup-proof and instrumental to the Cardinals' offense. His back designation reflects routine management rather than a lingering concern.
  • The Seahawks hold a 31-22-1 series lead over Arizona and have won 11 straight games dating to last season. This matchup presents a significant early-season test for the new-look Cardinals.
  • First-Year Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur faces Seattle coach Mike Macdonald in a litmus test for Arizona's franchise rebuild. Sunday's matchup will reveal how the new-look team performs against a defending Super Bowl contender.
