Hamstring
December 7, 2025
Weaver (hamstring) is listed as inactive Sunday versus the Rams.
ANALYSIS
In a receiving corps that already was trending toward being without Marvin Harrison (heel) and Greg Dortch (chest) in Week 14, Weaver showed up on Thursday's injury report as limited due to a hamstring issue and then wasn't able to practice at all Friday, leaving him questionable for Sunday's game. Adam Schefter of ESPN then reported Saturday evening that Weaver wasn't in line to play this weekend, which now has come to pass. With Harrison also inactive and Dortch placed on injured reserve Saturday, the Cardinals will be rolling with Trent Sherfield, Andre Baccellia and Jalen Brooks at wide receiver behind clear-cut No. 1 option Michael Wilson.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Among rookie UDFAs to watch
WRArizona Cardinals
May 5, 2024
Weaver is the top rookie undrafted free agent to watch for the Cardinals, according to Nick Baumgardner and Scott Dotcherman of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Weaver's undersized at just 169 pounds, but he had a productive college career, leading Colorado with 908 receiving yards in 2023 after consecutive seasons with at least 715 yards at South Florida. If he can bulk up a bit without a decline in quickness, Weaver has a chance to make the roster for the rebuilding Cardinals.
