| Cardinals Expect LB Gerald Hayes To Play Vs Bears | | |
Inside linebacker Gerald Hayes is expected to play Sunday against the Bears despite missing practice time this week because of back spasms but if Hayes can't play, the Cardinals lose some heft in stopping the run game. Hayes is listed at 246 pounds, while his backup, Ali Highsmith, is only 230 pounds. Highsmith has played mostly on special teams, but Whisenhunt has confidence Highsmith would play well in the base defense, even though he's small for an inside linebacker. "We obviously don't have any prejudice against that (size)," Whisenhunt said. "I think really what we look at is how he (Highsmith) plays the game, and he does a good job at that."
