FLAGSTAFF, Arizona (Ticker) -- Arizona Cardinals rookie
cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie was carted off the
practice field after suffering a sprained right ankle on
Tuesday.
The 16th overall pick of April's draft, Rodgers-Cromartie
suffered the injury midway through practice and was taken for
X-rays.
The Cardinals are moving Antrel Rolle to safety, so the 6-2,
182-pound Rodgers-Cromartie is expected to contribute right
away.
The former track star held out for the first two days of
training camp before signing a six-year deal on July 25. A
cousin of San Diego Chargers cornerback Antonio Cromartie,
Rodgers-Cromartie was a two-time All-American at Tennessee
State.
