It all changed with an injured right hamstring.
Or so we thought.
The 4-9-1 Arizona Cardinals had thoroughly outplayed the 11-3 Seattle Seahawks through three quarters before disaster hit.
Following a scramble out of bounce, Kyler Murray was seen noticeably frustrated on the sidelines and for good reason. The rookie phenom quarterback had reaggravated his nagging right hamstring to the point where he couldn’t renter the game.
At the time, Arizona was cruising, leading rival Seattle by the score of 20-7. Kenyan Drake kicked off this one with an 80 yard touchdown scamper that fueled a Cardinal running game that produced 253 yards on the ground.
