Cardinals trying to figure out RB rotation

The Cardinals have their most talented group of running backs in years, perhaps since moving to Arizona in 1988.

So one of the frequently posed questions to coach Bruce Arians in training camp was how was he going to divide the workload between David Johnson, the starter, and backups Chris Johnson and Andre Ellington?

Arians never provided specifics, to the dismay of fantasy team owners, but it’s not likely he envisioned what happened in the loss last Sunday night to the Patriots.

David Johnson carried 16 times for 89 yards and caught four passes for 43.
