Kevin Strong - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

No longer suspended The NFL reinstated Strong from his suspension Tuesday, per the NFL transaction log.

Impact Strong has served a three-game suspension that was placed on him by the league in late August. The 28-year-old defensive end will now have the opportunity to sign with a team. He played in 14 regular-season games with the Cardinals in 2023 and accumulated 46 tackles (25 solo), including 2.5 sacks, one pass defended and one fumble recovery.

Ready to go Sunday Strong (knee) is active Sunday against the Steelers.

Impact Strong logged limited practices all week after missing the team's Week 12 matchup against the Rams. He'll return to the field though after the one-game absence and should remain a significant part of the Cardinals' rotation on the edge.

Limited in practice again Strong (knee) was a limited participant in practice for the second day in a row Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The starting defensive end missed one game earlier in the season with a shoulder injury but has otherwise played in every contest. Strong has 30 tackles, including 2.5 sacks, a pass defensed and a fumble recovery in 2023.

Tabbed as questionable for Week 9 Strong (shoulder) has a questionable tag for Sunday's contest versus Cleveland, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Strong missed last week's loss to the Ravens but has a chance to suit up against the Browns after logging a trio of limited practices during Week 9 prep. He had been on a roll prior to getting hurt, notching 2.5 sacks over his past three games. If Strong isn't able to return to the field Sunday, Dante Stills would likely see an uptick in defensive snaps.

Logs limited session Thursday Strong (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact It was the second straight limited session for Strong, who was unable to practice all of last week and was unable to play against the Ravens in Week 8. The limited practices are a positive step for Strong's chances of playing in Week 9 against the Browns, and his participation Friday will give a better sense of whether he'll be able to suit up or not.

Out Sunday Strong (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Strong likely suffered a shoulder injury during the Cardinals' Week 7 loss to the Seahawks, and he was unable to practice all week, so it's no surprise that he'll be inactive this Sunday. Dante Stills is expected to see an uptick in work on Arizona's defensive line in Strong's stead.

Back in full Thursday Strong (ankle) practiced fully Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Impact Strong was unavailable for Sunday night's contest in Kansas City due to an ankle issue, but his ability to log a full session Thursday implies that his injury is no longer a concern. The 6-foot-4, 295-pounder is slated to continue operating in his usual role as a rotational defensive lineman Sunday against Denver, though he could see additional volume if Jeffery Simmons (ankle) is unable to gain medical clearance before the weekend.

Inactive Sunday Strong (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against Kansas City, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Strong was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday this week but was unable to participate Friday. He'll be held out for at least one game, which could lead to a slight uptick in playing time for Mario Edwards and Larrell Murchison.
