Mathis (toe) will not be available for the Cardinals' Week 3 matchup against the Bills, Kent Somers of AZCentral.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
This appears to be a separate injury from the one that put his Week 2 status in question, as Mathis is reportedly now dealing with a turf toe instead of a mid-foot sprain. In his absence, Cole Toner projects to slide into the starting lineup at right guard.

Mathis is questionable for Week 2 due to a foot injury, Cardinals' insider Mike Jurecki reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how Mathis injured his foot but it was enough to limit him in practice both Thursday and Friday. Though he's questionable, it'd be surprising if he's held out on Sunday.

The Cardinals and Mathis agreed to a one-year contract Wednesday, Mark Dalton of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
After shipping Jonathan Cooper to New England on Tuesday, the Cardinals had a need at right guard and responded promptly with the acquisition of Mathis. While the 11-year pro was deficient in pass protection last season with the Broncos, he should upgrade the run-blocking of the Cardinals.

Mathis, who was released by the Eagles last week, has received interest from "at least half a dozen" teams interested in signing him, the Miami Herald reports. Mathis, one of the NFL's top rated offensive guards over the past few seasons, was let go by Philadelphia last week amid a contract dispute that caused him to sit out the Eagles' entire offseason program. Now a free agent, Mathis has garnered interest from numerous teams and is reportedly expected to weigh the opportunity of winning and the likelihood of securing an agreeable contract in his eventual destination decision.
