Kirkpatrick missed Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick popped back up on the injury report Wednesday with the hamstring injury that hampered him earlier in the season. The veteran has missed just one game this campaign, racking up 51 tackles (48 solo), seven pass break ups and three interceptions in 12 games. If Kirkpatrick were forced to miss Sunday's game against the Eagles, Byron Murphy and Kevin Peterson would be in line for an uptick in snaps in the secondary.

Kirkpatrick (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran was estimated to be a limited participant for Monday's practice session, but this news is evidence that he's ready to play in Thursday's divisional clash. Kirkpatrick logged 86 percent of defensive snaps in last weeks win over the Bills, racking up three solo tackles and an interception, so expect him to handle a similar roll now that he's officially healthy.

Kirkpatrick was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report with a hamstring injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran cornerback played 63 defensive snaps during Sunday's win over the Bills after being listed as questionable with a thigh injury, and the fact he was estimated as limited indicates the hamstring issue isn't a serious concern. Kirkpatrick could avoid an injury designation for Thursday's game at Seattle if he can practice fully in the next couple days.

Kirkpatrick (thigh) is active for Sunday's contest against the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick will return after missing last week's loss to the Dolphins. The veteran cornerback has been shaky in coverage at times this season, allowing a 104.5 passer rating and two touchdowns through seven games, but he's totaled 29 tackles, three pass breakups and an interception in that stretch.

Kirkpatrick (thigh), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick was a limited participant in practices Wednesday through Friday, but he looks like he'll be ready to return from a one-game absence and reclaim a starting role Week 10. Expect the Cardinals' top cornerback, Patrick Peterson, to spend most of the day matching up with Stefon Diggs, leaving Kirkpatrick to follow John Brown.

Kirkpatrick (thigh) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick wasn't able to suit up against the Dolphins last weekend, but he's since managed to resume practicing and has logged three limited sessions. If he's able to get the green light and play Sunday, the veteran cornerback's presence will provide Arizona's secondary with a notable boost against Buffalo's dangerous receiving corps.

Kirkpatrick was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick didn't practice last week before missing Week 9 against the Dolphins, so the fact that he was limited is a positive sign. Kirkpatrick was deemed day-to-day Monday, so expect his practice availability throughout the week to shed a light on his chances to suit up in Sunday's game against Buffalo.

Kirkpatrick (thigh) is considered day-to-day heading into Week 10, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick didn't practice at all last week, but his current designation signals he could get some work in as soon as Wednesday's session. The Cardinals hope Byron Murphy (COVID-19) will return, too, which would round out their typical starting secondary.

Kirkpatrick (thigh) won't play Sunday against the Dolphins, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick will join Byron Murphy (illness) on the sidelines, so De'Vante Bausby and Kevin Peterson are both likely to log heavy snap counts at cornerback along with Patrick Peterson. Arizona's Week 10 matchup with the Bills represents Kirkpatrick's next opportunity to get back on the field.

Kirkpatrick (thigh) is not practicing Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kirkpatrick looks set to miss a second straight practice, despite the fact that he's coming off extra rest during a bye week. The veteran cornerback has been a standout coverage option this season, so if he were to miss any time it could provide a notable boost for Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins on Sunday.
