Cardinals' Xavier Weaver: Sits out practice
Weaver "nicked" his oblique, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon, and did not practice Monday, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Weaver's injury comes at an inopportune time, as the 23-year-old was able to make the 53-man roster despite going undrafted out of Colorado. Likely aiding his inclusion on the active roster was the five-game suspension of Zay Jones for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. Any missed time for Weaver could be lost opportunity with Jones on the sidelines. However, Weaver will work to get back on the field sometime this week ahead of the team's season opener Sunday against the Bills.

Cardinals' Xavier Weaver: Gets long look in preseason finale
Weaver caught two of four targets for a team-high 56 yards in Sunday's 38-12 preseason loss to the Broncos. He added 71 yards on two kickoff and two punt returns.
The undrafted rookie out of Colorado got a chance to make an impression in the Cardinals' preseason finale and took advantage, showing his ability as a return man and also connecting with Clayton Tune on a 43-yard reception in the second quarter. Weaver is a long shot to crack Arizona's season-opening roster, but with Zay Jones set to miss the first five games after the league handed down a suspension Friday, the 23-year-old at least picked a good time to have a strong performance.

Xavier Weaver: Lands with Arizona
Weaver intends to sign with the Cardinals as an undrafted free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Weaver will get $255,000 guaranteed, according to Pelissero. After spending four years at South Florida, Weaver transferred to Colorado for his 2023 campaign and had his best statistical season with a 68-908-4 receiving line. He led the team in receiving and added a pair of rushing scores. Arizona used first- and sixth-rounds picks on wideouts Marvin Harrison and Tejhaun Palmer. Weaver will look to win a job this summer.
