The Arizona Cardinals released their inactive list 90 minutes before kicking off against the Detroit Lions at home in Week 5. As expected, wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. was deactivated, pending a trade that will be announced likely on Monday.
However, after missing time with a back injury, safety Dadrion Taylor-Demerson returned, which was timely, as starter Andrew Wingard was ruled out with a knee injury.
Newly signed tackle Jedrick Wills was one of three backup offensive linemen active for the game.
