Arizona Cardinals activate TE Hunter Long, elevate WR Zay Jones

The Cardinals announced roster moves on Saturday. See who was added to the roster to play against the Rams.

The Arizona Cardinals have made two roster moves ahead of their Week 10 game against the Los Angeles Rams at State Farm Stadium. First, they have activated tight end Hunter Long from injured reserve, returning him to the 53-man roster and giving the team four tight ends. Long is expected to primarily serve as a blocker, which should aid the team's run game.

At the same time, wide receiver Zay Jones has been elevated from the practice squad to the active roster. This move was anticipated by head coach Mike LaFleur, who believes Jones could potentially become a starter. With his addition, the receiver room now includes Simi Fehoko, Devin Duvernay, rookies Reggie Virgil and Harrison Wallace III.

Other key players, Roy Lopez and Darius Robinson, who were listed as questionable due to injuries, are expected to be ready for the game. Cornerback Max Melton and safety Andrew Wingard are also considered questionable, but it appears they will play as well. The Cardinals will reveal their inactive list 90 minutes before kickoff.
