CHICAGO (AP) Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Anquan Boldin was inactive for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears because of a sprained right ankle.

Boldin reinjured the ankle in the third quarter of last week's 34-21 loss to Carolina, but had hoped to be able to play against the Bears. Arizona linebacker Gerald Hayes was also out Sunday with a back injury.

Chicago wide receiver Devin Hester was active, even though he was limited during the week by a sore right ankle. He missed two practices.
