The Cardinals got through the preseason with David Johnson healthy. That was the top goal.
But even that had a downside, at least for offensive coordinator Harold Goodwin.
“The only think I am nervous about is the limited reps in the preseason,” Goodwin said. “He hasn’t really been out there.”
The running back played just 11 snaps in five preseason games. He did get the ball when he was in there, carrying it six times (for 19 yards) and making one catch for eight yards. Johnson, who wants to follow up his 1,239-yards-rushing-and-879-yards-receiving season by reaching
1,000 yards in both categories, isn’t concerned.
