Cardinals' Tyrann Mathieu: Game-time call Sunday

Head coach Bruce Arians said Friday that Mathieu (shoulder) will likely be a game-time decision Sunday in Minnesota, Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

Handling a limited workload in each practice this week, Mathieu unsurprisingly received a questionable designation for this weekend's outing, according to Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site. Mathieu was expected to be sidelined three to six weeks as a result of the shoulder subluxation suffered in Week 8, but with the benefit of a bye in the meantime, he may amazingly miss just one game. His availability will be touched on upon the release of the team's inactive list for Sunday's 1:00 PM ET kickoff.
