A knee issue will have Cardinals running back Andre Ellington limited in practice to start the week, per the team website.

After fitting in a limited showing Friday, his expected practice participation Wednesday is no surprise, but knee injuries are not to be trifled with. As a result, his activity level will be monitored closely as he continues to recover from a PCL sprain suffered in the season opener.

Another absence would open the door for Chris Johnson to handle the bulk of the RB reps Sunday against St. Louis.
