Injury report:
CB Rudy Ford (hamstring) won’t play Saturday against the Raiders. LT D.J. Humphries (hamstring), WR Chad Williams (shin splints) and WR John Brown (quadriceps) are questionable at best. Arians said he would err on the side of caution in deciding if they would play or not. WR Aaron Dobson (hamstring), OLB Jarvis Jones (back) will not play Saturday.
Up next:
Saturday’s preseason game against the Raiders kicks off at 7 p.m. The next scheduled open practice is Monday, from 2 to 4:30 p.m.
Dispatches from Cardinals camp:
Quarterback Carson Palmer didn’t practice on Thursday, meaning he will have participated in only one major practice in advance of Saturday’s preseason game against the Raiders. Palmer is expected to start that game.
The Cardinals were off on Monday. Palmer participated in a full-pad practice on Tuesday, then off Wednesday and Thursday. Friday’s practice is expected to be a walk-through in which quarterbacks do little throwing.
Coaches are monitoring Palmer’s workload in this camp in hopes of keeping his right arm strong throughout the season. But his workload, at least as far as throwing footballs, is unusually low for an NFL starting quarterback…
Bettcher bits
Defensive coordinator James Bettcher met with reporters after practice Thursday. Some highlights:
—Tackle Robert Nkemdiche is playing well, and in terms of being a professional, is far ahead of where he was a year ago. Bettcher said that included taking care of his body and getting more out of meetings. Nkemdiche was a first-round pick in 2016.
—Cornerback Justin Bethel has played well in training camp, but the starting cornerback’s job remains unsettled.
—Inside linebacker Haason Reddick, this year’s first-round pick, has made steady progress throughout camp, especially in pass coverage.
—Safety Budda Baker, the second-round pick, will have a role on the defense to start the season. At times in camp, the Cardinals have used a dime package that included two cornerbacks (Bethel and Patrick Peterson) and four safeties (Baker, Tyrann Mathieu, Antoine Bethea and Tyvon Branch).
Tackling machines
Becoming better tacklers has been a priority for the Cardinals this offseason, and they’ve turned to technology to help them in the quest.
The Cardinals used mobile tackling dummies this week for the first time after ordering some several months ago. The order arrived late, which is why the dummies debuted three weeks into camp. “Glad they’re finally here, three months late,” coach Bruce Arians said.
As for tackling, Arians liked what he saw in last Thursday’s game against the Cowboys “other than a couple times where we dropped our head and the guy jumped over us.”…
Kickoff concerns
Coaches haven’t determined yet who will kick off.
Kicker Phil Dawson wants to do it, and punters Richie Leone and Matt Wile handled the duties in the first preseason game. Leone and Wile, however, haven’t punted particularly well at camp so it’s not a given they will make the team.
“We’ll see how it all shakes out,” Dawson said. “I’ll fully support the coaches’ decision.”
Dawson had only four touchbacks last season with the 49ers, but that was a function of strategy, he said. Coaches asked him to place the ball and allow his teammates to cover.
It worked. The 49ers yielded 19.8 yards per kickoff return, 5th best in the NFL.
Quote: “My mindset about preseason is it’s a process. You want to make every kick. That’s my plan, but the goal is be ready week one in September. A game in preseason is just another day to get better, improve and get ready so that when they really count, you’re ready to roll.”
