The Arizona Cardinals activated right tackle Jonah Williams off injured reserve on Wednesday.
In a corresponding move made in advance, the team waived OL Charlie Heck on Monday, then re-signed him to the practice squad on Tuesday.
Williams, 27, who signed a two-year contract worth $30 million with the Cardinals in March, was injured early in his first game with the club in Week 1 against the Bills. He played 22 offensive snaps in the loss at Buffalo before sustaining the injury on the final play of the first quarter.
Kelvin Beachum started at right tackle in eight of the nine games Williams missed, missing Week 3 himself with an injury.
Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon has not determined if Williams will return to the starting lineup on Sunday.
A first-round pick (No. 11 overall) in 2019, Williams has started all 60 games he’s played with the Cincinnati Bengals and Cardinals.
