  • Cardinals' Jalen Thompson: Questionable for Sunday

    Thompson (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

    Thompson appears to be trending in the wrong direction ahead of Sunday, as he popped up on the Cardinals' injury report Thursday as a limited participant before downgrading to a DNP on Friday. If this ankle issue keeps Thompson sidelined in Week 10, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson will likely serve as Arizona's top strong safety.

  • Cardinals' Jalen Thompson: Limited Thursday

    Thompson (ankle) was limited in Thursday's practice.

    It's a new injury for the Cardinals' veteran safety, who wasn't listed on the practice report Wednesday. His Friday participating bears watching ahead of the weekend. Thompson has started all nine games for Arizona, logging 56 tackles (36 solo), two pass breakups and one fumble recovery. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson and Joey Blount are the Cardinals' backup safeties.

    Thompson recorded 11 total tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Dolphins.

    The Cardinals' top safety duo of Thompson and Budda Baker combined for a whopping 23 total tackles in Sunday's come-from-behind win. Thompson has proved to be an integral part of Arizona's defense this season, tallying 54 total tackles and two passes defended through the team's first eight contests. He's expected to continue starting alongside Baker as the Cardinals host the Bears in Week 9.

  • Cardinals' Jalen Thompson: Registers nine tackles vs. Detroit

  • Cardinals' Jalen Thompson: Picks off four passes this season

    Thompson notched 78 tackles, including 1.0 sacks, four interceptions among nine pass defenses and a forced fumble in 15 regular-season contests in 2023.

    After surpassing 100 tackles in both of the previous two campaigns, Thompson fell well short of that mark while missing his first games (Weeks 6 and 7) since December 2020. Not only did dealing with four separate injuries impact his overall output, he may have been a culprit of the new coaching staff's change from a 3-4 to a 4-3 scheme. On a positive note, Thompson posted his first career sack and set a career high in interceptions. In 2024, he'll be playing on the second season of the three-year extension he signed with the Cardinals back in September 2022.

He's actually had a down year so far compared to his past two seasons, but he'll still be on the fringe of the IDP radar after Arizona's bye in Week 14 thanks to his consistent every-down role.
