Cardinals Pro Bowl receiver DeAndre Hopkins returns from a six-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing drugs,
looking to jump start a sputtering offense when Arizona hosts the New Orleans Saints. The teams are tied at 15-15 in the all-time series.
The Cardinals have scored just three points in the first quarter all season and are losers of three of their past four games.
However, Arizona faces a New Orleans squad also scuffling, as the Saints have lost four of their last five.
The Saints will also be missing some key players on Thursday, with cornerback Marshon Lattimore,
guard Andrus Peat and receivers Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry all ruled out.
Arizona had been solid against the run defensively this season but allowed Kenneth Walker III
The Saints are banged up at receiver, with rookie Chris Olave the most productive player available on the perimeter
. And with either Andy Dalton or Jameis Winston at quarterback, New Orleans will be limited through the air.
Expect the Saints to lean on Kamara as a runner and receiver out of the backfield.
