Arizona expects running back Jeremiyah Love to return against the Cowboys after an ankle injury kept him out for two games, head coach Mike LaFleur told reporters. The first-round pick has not played since Week 5.

Love resumed practicing Wednesday. At his press conference, LaFleur said Love felt as good as he could following the injury, while noting that he did not believe any players were at 100 percent at this stage of the season.

Over Arizona’s first five games, Love rushed for 245 yards on 67 carries and scored a touchdown on the ground. He also contributed as a receiver, making 11 catches for 36 yards and another touchdown.

The Cardinals also expect offensive lineman Elijah Wilkinson, who has a knee injury, to play. Defensive tackle Walter Nolen and offensive lineman Jon Gaines will be unavailable against Dallas; both have ankle injuries.
