Cardinals: Shipp in the mix

There's no denying that Edgerrin James will start at tailback for the Cardinals, but the Arizona Republic reports that Marcel Shipp will still play a significant role as a backup. The logic behind this report is that new head coach Ken Whisnenhunt is high on Shipp and feels that his straight ahead style will offer a nice change of pace for James. I'll be watching closely to see which back gets the goal line carries during the preseason games.
