Aug 14, 2009

Cardinals QB Matt Leinart finished 8-of-14 for 83 yards. Brian St. Pierre, who played the third quarter with the second unit as well, finished 4-of-10 for 42 yards. Cornerback Joe Burnett picked off St. Pierre on the first play of the third quarter, returning the ball 42 yards to the Cardinals’ 3 and setting up Isaac Redman’s three-yard touchdown run.

Whisenhunt said he was hesitant to judge the Leinart-St. Pierre competition because the circumstances were different for both players, noting that St. Pierre “didn’t get a lot of help.” Whisenhunt added the two will flip-flop roles – with St. Pierre the first to relieve Warner – in the next preseason game against the Chargers.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
