TEMPE, Ariz. Dalvin Tomlinson Youth Jersey . -- Tyrann Mathieu returned to practice for the Arizona Cardinals on Wednesday and said he was optimistic that he would be able to play when the team faces the Vikings in Minnesota.Coach Bruce Arians also confirmed after practice that wide receiver Jaron Brown has signed an extension that puts him under contract through next season.Brown is out for the season with a knee injury.We love him as a football player, Arians said. It looks like hell be fine health-wise, gives him another year. Hes earned it. Really happy for him and its good for us because hes a quality special teams player and a real quality receiver.The signing gives the team some protection should the Cardinals lose wide receiver Michael Floyd, who becomes a free agent at the end of this season.Jarons a guy you dont want to lose, quarterback Carson Palmer said. What he brings to the team, because he can play special teams, he plays every spot at receiver. Hes got speed, hes physical, he catches the ball. He catches 50-50 balls very well. Just a very, very well-rounded receiver.Browns signing was first reported by azcentralsports.Mathieu was limited in practice but said afterward that his shoulder felt fine. He was still wearing a brace on the knee that was surgically repaired late last season but was meeting with the doctor to discuss taking it off, which would greatly aid the mobility that is so crucial to the way he plays the game.Of courses Id rather play without it, he said, but I dont want to do anything that puts me in harms way, so Ill talk to him. Im sure well negotiate something.The defensive back was sidelined with a shoulder subluxation in Arizonas loss at Carolina on Oct. 30 and missed Sundays 23-20 win over San Francisco.He said removing the brace would clear another hurdle as he tries to get back to his aggressive Honey Badger performances of the past.The shoulder injury, he said, was just another challenge.Life frustrates sometimes, Mathieu said. Youve just got to deal with it. Cant get too high or too low. Its just another challenge for me. I embrace all those challenges.The way Mathieu talked, his participation in Sundays game was no sure thing.Ill see how I feel at the end of the week and if Im at 100 percent, or very close to it, Ill play Sunday, he said. If not, Ill hold back. ... Im optimistic I will play. I try to look on the bright side of everything.Mathieu was asked about the perception that hes handling this shoulder setback better than he did such problems earlier in his career.I dont know, he said. From the outside looking in maybe, but its frustrating on the inside, obviously. A lot of noise. You try to tune that out. Just another challenge for me. I embrace it.The Cardinals defense ranks second in the NFL, allowing 295.2 yards per game, but Mathieu said the team doesnt have the swagger it exhibited in last years 13-3 season.At times weve had swagger. We have had confidence, he said. Were just playing inconsistent right now. Weve just got to get that consistency back. Once we get that back, Im sure well be rolling.Theyd better get rolling soon. At 4-4-1, the Cardinals cant afford many more stumbles if they want to challenge for a playoff berth.After Sundays game against a Minnesota team hungry for a win after four straight losses, the Cardinals go to Atlanta to face the NFC South-leading Falcons.Game notes Larry Fitzgerald didnt practice due to knee and ankle injuries but Arians said he remains confident his star wide receiver will play Sunday. ... Palmer had another veterans day off. ... Outside linebacker Chandler Jones missed practice because of a family issue.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Dalvin Tomlinson Jersey . Louis Rams wide receiver Stedman Bailey last Sunday. The fine is the fourth this season for Goldson. He was fined $30,000 for a hit on the New York Jets Jeff Cumberland in Week 1. Davis Webb Giants Jersey . -- Five former Kansas City Chiefs players who were on the team between 1987 and 1993 filed a lawsuit Tuesday claiming the team hid and even lied about the risks of head injuries during that time period when there was no collective bargaining agreement in place in the NFL. http://www.giantsauthenticshop.com/Wayne-Gallman-Giants-Jersey/ . -- The Sacramento Kings are set to become the first major professional sports franchise to accept Bitcoin virtual currency for ticket and merchandise purchases.We asked Soccer Saturday pundit Charlie Nicholas to pick his best combined XI from Manchester Uniteds and Leicester Citys squads ahead of their potential title decider on Super Sunday. The Foxes can wrap up the most unlikely of title triumphs with a victory at Old Trafford, live on Sky Sports 1HD, while United will be looking to boost their top-four hopes.Sundays showdown is also the selected as Sky Sports Fantasy Six-a-Side fixture, with £10,000 up for grabs to the highest scoring entrant of the free-to-play game. Heres who Charlie rates as the best XI for the crucial clash…GOALKEEPER - David de Gea David De Gea is at a different level to Kasper Schmeichel, says Charlie Kasper Schmeichel has been absolutely fantastic and his father must be tremendously proud. All successful teams have a top goalkeeper and hes proven to be just that.However, De Gea is just at a different level. I remember playing with Pat Jennings, who I called god, he just had everything as one of the first goalkeepers to save with his legs.DEFENCE - Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Wes Morgan, Robert Huth, Christian Fuchs Wes Morgans partnership with Robert Huth has been crucial for Leicester Danny Simpson has done well and is vastly improved but hes edged out by my one United defender. Ive gone for Fosu-Mensah, who every time I see him I wonder how he hasnt been in the team all season. This kid is going to be a superstar.The United defence has been pretty solid and Daley Blind has done better than we expected while Chris Smalling has had an okay season. However, Morgan and Huth know how to do their job so well and theyre also a threat from set-pieces.At left-back Ive gone for Fuchs. Hes a calm and cool defender who keeps everything simplee and is a very efficient. Davis Webb Youth Jersey. Every time I see him I wonder how he hasnt been in the team all season. This kid is going to be a superstar. Charlie Nicholas on Timothy Fosu-Mensah MIDFIELD - Danny Drinkwater, NGolo Kante, Michael CarrickThis midfield obviously doesnt have many goals in it but it provides the platform for the front three to deliver.Danny Drinkwater and NGolo Kante have been fantastic as a pair, with Drinkwater spraying passes all over the park while Kante charges around. Kante isnt a holding midfielder for me. Everyone compares him to Claude Makelele but hes a better player and he passes forward whenever possible.Ive always been a big Michael Carrick fan and Id have him holding and letting the other two do their work.FORWARDS - Riyad Mahrez, Jamie Vardy, Anthony Martial Anthony Martial has pace, power and is a decent finisher Mahrez is probably the first name on my team sheet. Who would be competing against him? Jesse Lingard? Juan Mata? Mata is a great little player but I dont think Uniteds style suits him.Then Vardy goes in as my central striker. Marcus Rashford hasnt been in the team long enough but he does look like a potential superstar.Martial completes my line-up. He has scored big goals and looks a great signing. Hes got pace, power and is a decent finisher.Think you can pick a better eam than Charlie? Pick your Fantasy Six-a-Side team for Manchester United v Leicester City here.
