  • Cardinals' Bilal Nichols: Linking up with Cardinals

    Arizona plans to sign Nichols to a three-year, $21 million contract, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

    Nichols figures to provide some interior run-stopping ability for a Cardinals defense that ranked last against the run in 2024. Over the past four seasons with Chicago and Las Vegas, he hasn't missed a game.

  • Raiders' Bilal Nichols: Good to go vs. Steelers

    Nichols (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game versus the Steelers, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.

    Nichols was forced out of Week 2 at Buffalo with a hamstring injury, but he recovered in time to suit up for Week 3. He'll resume a starting role on the defensive line next to Jerry Tillery.

  • Raiders' Bilal Nichols: Limited Wednesday

    The veteran defensive tackle exited Week 2 against the Bills early with a hamstring issue, and he apparently also has a hand injury on top of it. The limited practice should put Nichols on the right track for Week 3 versus Pittsburgh. He has four tackles across 71 defensive snaps on the young season.

  • Raiders' Bilal Nichols: Questionable for Sunday

    Nichols (shoulder) was listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against Tennessee.

    It's unclear whether or not Nichols will play Sunday, as he logged limited practices both Thursday and Friday.

Kendal Vickers will likely play more of the team's snaps if Nichols is unable to suit up Sunday.
