Artis-Payne is inactive, along with wide receivers Brenton Bersin and Kevin Norwood, cornerback Lou Young, safety Dean Marlowe and running back Brandon Wegher. Defensive end Jared Allen was ruled out on Friday with a broken bone in his right foot.
Arizona's inactive list includes quarterback Matt Barkley, cornerback Corey White, running back Kerwynn Williams, linebackers Shaq Riddick and Jason Babin, offensive tackle D.J. Humphries and nose tackle Xavier Williams.
