David Johnson still has a cast on his wrist

The Cardinals lost workhorse running back David Johnson to a wrist injury in Week One. It’s now Week Eight, and it looks like he’ll still be out, for a while.

“I hope I do get back, but I really don’t know,” Johnson recently told Mike Jurecki of 98.7 FM Arizona Sports. “The wrist is a complicated limb and it’s tough to say, just because I still have this cast on. I haven’t even started rehab so I don’t know yet.”

The Cardinals eventually replaced Johnson with Adrian Peterson, and the 2-4 team arguably would be wise to save Johnson for next year instead of rushing him back this year — especially with hopes quickly fading for a playoff berth, thanks to the broken arm suffered last week by quarterback Carson Palmer.

Doubt if he plays this year.

 

[blindseyed]

doesn't matter for this year, rest up, rehab and come back strong. With Stanton we're playing for draft position

 

[football karma]

lets see where the team is in four weeks

if they go 2-2 or worse --- I dont play DJ. No point in risking further damage for a season out of reach

Except don't win two meaningless games at the end of the year this time!

He's not coming back this season

"I haven't even started rehab." Says it all

Even if he came back this week BA wouldn't be smart enough to run the football.

Yeah, Arians is so stupid that the Cardinals had the #2 and #6 scoring offenses in 2014-2015, and David Johnson led the league in yards from scrimmage last year. What an idiot!
