Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Friday that he expects Brown (foot) to play Sunday against the Chargers, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
The Cardinals designated Brown for return from injured reserve last Wednesday and had him out on the practice field again this week. Kingsbury said Wednesday that the speedy wideout was likely to be on a pitch count in his first game back after missing more than a month with foot injury, but Brown at least sounds like he's on track to play for the first time since Week 6. The Cardinals will have until 4 p.m. ET on Saturday to officially activate Brown from IR for this weekend's game.
