Cardinals adjust practice plan for Carson Beck amid recovery from injury

Summary

Carson Beck is recovering from a rib injury that has limited his practice time with the Arizona Cardinals. Following an impressive performance in the Hall of Fame Game, Beck's ability to compete for a starting role has been stunted by his injury and the presence of veterans Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew. Head coach Mike LaFleur announced they will share practice reps to keep Beck involved while he recovers. LaFleur also indicated that Beck is expected to return around December, allowing the team to evaluate his potential as they consider future quarterback options.
