Report: Cardinals' Corey Peters carted off with apparent ankle injury

Arizona Cardinals defensive lineman Corey Peters was carted off the field during Wednesday's practice with an apparent ankle injury, according to ESPN's Josh Weinfuss.

Peters signed a three-year contract with the Cardinals in March, after spending his first five seasons with the Atlanta Falcons.

The sixth-year pro recorded 26 tackles and two sacks in 15 games last year.

Peters is versatile enough to play defensive end or tackle for the Cardinals. If he's out for a prolonged period, Alameda Ta'amu will replace Peters at nose tackle.
