The injuries have been worse elsewhere around the NFL, but the Cardinals haven’t been immune to losing their fair share of starters and key performers in 2020.
It started in training camp with the second straight, season-ending injury to cornerback Robert Alford, this time to a torn pectoral muscle. During their season-opening victory at the 49ers, they lost starting strong safety Jalen Thompson to an ankle injury and he’s missed the past six games.
Tight end Maxx Williams (ankle) hasn’t played since that game, either, but the biggest lost of all came during Week 5 when Arizona lost star edge rusher Chandler Jones to a season-ending torn biceps.
