Arrington doesn't practice but says he'll be fine

[January 24, 2009]  TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) -- Arizona running back J.J. Arrington sat out practice for the second day in a row on Friday but said "I'll be fine" when the Cardinals play the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl on Feb. 1.

Arrington injured his right knee late in the first half of Arizona's 32-25 victory over Philadelphia in the NFC championship game. He was the only player to miss Friday's workout.

Defensive ends Travis LaBoy (biceps) and Antonio Smith (knee) were limited. Punter Ben Graham also was limited with a left groin injury.

Wide receiver Anquan Boldin participated in his second full practice in a row. He missed the divisional playoff victory over Carolina with a strained left hamstring but played against Philadelphia and said he felt no problem with the leg this week.

The Cardinals practice on Saturday then take Sunday off before flying to Tampa on Monday.
