Thompson recorded 10 total tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 36-30 overtime loss to the Panthers. The Washington State product paced Arizona in total tackles during Sunday's overtime loss, his second game of the season with double-digit stops. Thompson has now accumulated 82 total tackles and two passes defended through 13 appearances, and he's expected to continue starting alongside Budda Baker as part of the Cardinals' top safety duo in the Week 17 matchup against the Rams.
Thompson recorded six tackles (two solo) in Arizona's loss versus the Seahawks on Sunday. Thompson finished third on the team in tackles behind Budda Baker's 18 and Kyzir White's 13. Thompson has now compiled 66 tackles (41 solo) and two pass deflections in 11 games played this season and will have a chance to add to his total Week 15 versus New England.
Thompson (illness) is active for Sunday's game versus the Seahawks, Daren Urban of the Cardinals' official website reports. Thompson was a late addition to Arizona's injury report due to feeling under the weather. It looks like he has recovered enough to give it a go versus Seattle. As a result, he figures to take on his usual responsibilities at strong safety.
Thompson was added to Arizona's injury report Saturday due to an illness, and he is questionable to play Sunday against Seattle, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. Thompson is feeling under the weather ahead of Sunday's NFC West clash, and his status for the game may not be known until the Cardinals announce their inactives list approximately 90 minutes before the 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. If Thompson is unable to play, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson would be the top candidate to start at strong safety alongside free safety Budda Baker, while Joey Blount serves in a rotational role at safety.
Thompson tallied four tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 23-22 loss to Minnesota. Thompson missed the Cardinals' previous two games due to an ankle injury, but he was able to suit up Sunday and managed to play 98 percent of Arizona's defensive snaps. The veteran safety has logged 60 tackles (39 solo), two pass defenses and one fumble recovery across 10 regular-season games.
Thompson (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Vikings, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. The starting safety missed the Cardinals' last two games with the injury. Before that, he played in at least 85 percent of the defensive snaps in each of Arizona's first nine contests, recording 56 tackles (36 solo), two pass breakups and a fumble recovery.
Thompson (ankle) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. Thompson has missed the Cardinals' last two games due to an ankle injury, and after logging limited practices all week, his status for Sunday's game might not be known until the Cardinals announce their inactives approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. kickoff. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson will likely start at strong safety Sunday if Thompson is unable to play.
Thompson (ankle) was limited in Wednesday's practice. Thompson has missed the Cardinals' past two games after he was injured in practice leading up to Week 10 against the Jets. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson started in Thompson's place last week against the Seahawks.
Thompson (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports. Despite head coach Jonathan Gannon labeling Thompson as "day-to-day" Wednesday, the 26-year-old was unable to practice all week, so it's no surprise that he won't suit up in Week 12. With Thompson set to be sidelined for the second consecutive game Sunday, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson is expected to start alongside Budda Baker as part of the Cardinals' top safety duo.
