Blount suffered his injury during a practice earlier this week after returning from neck surgery . The safety had been expected to contribute primarily on special teams while serving as a backup in Arizona's safety group. His absence now creates an opening on special teams as the Cardinals prepare to finalize their 53-man roster.
Arizona's top safety options remain Budda Baker , Andrew Wingard and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson , with Kitan Crawford positioned as the fourth safety. Isaiah Oliver could also move up the depth chart.
