**Cardinals Offensive Line Gets Boost as Paris Johnson Jr. Returns Against Seahawks**
**GLENDALE, AZ -** The Arizona Cardinals will receive a significant boost to their offensive line as starting left tackle Paris Johnson Jr. is set to play against the Seattle Seahawks this Thursday night. Johnson’s return is welcome news after he missed last week’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.
In addition to Johnson, the Cardinals will also have both backup tackle Kelvin Beachum and starting left guard Evan Brown available, despite both being listed as questionable leading up to the game.
However, the offensive line is not at full strength as Will Hernandez remains inactive.
With James Conner sidelined, the Cardinals have elevated running back Michael Carter from the practice squad, joining Trey Benson, Emari Demercado, and Bam Knight in the backfield. The team also elevated defensive lineman Anthony Goodlow.
Other news for the Cardinals: rookie wide receiver Xavier Weaver is active. Cornerback Max Melton is active despite an illness, and rookie Taylor-Demerson is expected to see increased playing time.
