Bilal Nichols: Breaking News

Released by Arizona

Nichols (knee) was released by the Cardinals on Thursday after failing a physical, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. The defensive tackle ended the regular season on injured reserve with a knee injury and appears to still be dealing with the issue. A neck injury and the knee issue have limited Nichols to just 10 games over the last two years.

Moved to IR

Nichols (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday. Nichols was already ruled out for Sunday's game against Houston after he sustained a knee injury during last week's loss to the Rams. With Arizona already eliminated from playoff contention, this transaction means that the 29-year-old will now miss the remainder of the season on IR. Nichols totaled three tackles over four appearances in 2025.

Won't play vs. Houston

Nichols (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports. Nichols was unable to practice all week due to a knee injury that he sustained during the Cardinals' Week 14 loss to the Rams. Dante Stills and rookie third-rounder Jordan Burch are slated to see more rotational snaps at defensive end alongside Josh Sweat in Nichols' absence. Nichols will aim to progress enough in his recovery to return for Arizona's Week 16 tilt against Atlanta on Sunday, Dec. 21.
