Bailey had his six-game suspension lifted Monday and was placed back on the Cardinals' practice squad.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey was served a six-game suspension in mid-November for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances. The 2020 seventh-round pick will return to the practice squad and is eligible to be elevated to the active roster for the Cardinals' regular-season finale against the 49ers on Sunday.

Bailey was suspended six games for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances policy Tuesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey will be ineligible to be elevated from Arizona's practice squad until Week 18 now as a result of his suspension. The linebacker has appeared in one game in 2024, failing to record any stats while playing 16 snaps on special teams in Week 7 versus the Chargers.

Bailey agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Cardinals on Tuesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After four years in Cincinnati, Bailey will get a fresh start in Arizona. The 27-year-old accumulated 73 tackles (46 solo) across 60 games with the Bengals, primarily as a depth linebacker and special teams contributor. He will now look to impress in OTAs and carve out a role for himself with his new team.

Bailey (knee) is active Sunday against the Ravens, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey seemed to be trending toward an inactive designation after not practicing Friday; however, the Purdue product will be suiting up for the Week 2 contest. He'll help provide depth at linebacker for the Bengals.

Bailey (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

After missing practice Friday, Bailey seems to be on the doubtful end of the questionable designation. If he's forced to sit out in Week 2, Joe Bachie could be a candidate to rotate in occasionally at linebacker.

Bailey played 20 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Falcons, recording four tackles.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey is primarily a special teams player, having played just six defensive snaps all season prior to Week 7. The 2020 seventh-rounder saw more reps on defense last year when Logan Wilson was out, and Wilson's injury this year is the proximate cause for his return this year.

Bailey (neck) is active Sunday against the Broncos, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey was able to log three straight limited practices this week, after missing Week 14 against the 49ers. The second-year line backer will be asked to step up with Logan Wilson (shoulder) out Sunday against the Broncos.

Bailey (neck) is questionable for Sunday against the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey has logged three straight limited practices heading into Sunday. The second-year linebacker missed the Bengals' Week 14 contest against the 49ers with the injury. With Logan Wilson out with a shoulder injury and Clay Johnston on the reserve/COVID-19 list, the Bengals could be thin at linebacker Sunday.

Bailey (neck) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's matchup with the 49ers, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey exited last week's loss to the Chargers afters suffering a stinger. While he originally drew a questionable designation for Week 14, the team has since opted to err on the side of caution by ruling him out. In his absence, Joe Bachie figures to see an increased role on on the defense.

Bailey (shoulder) isn't believed to be dealing with a serious injury following Sunday's loss to the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Bailey was unable to return to Sunday's game after exiting with a shoulder issue in the first half, he's expected to be fine after being diagnosed with a stinger. The Bengals could monitor the 24-year-old's workload in practice this week, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him play Sunday against the 49ers.
