Gardner Minshew faces potential season-ending injury; Carson Beck to start
Summary

Gardner Minshew of the Arizona Cardinals is reportedly facing a potential season-ending torn UCL in his throwing arm. After initially playing through the injury, he is now seeking further medical evaluations. Rookie quarterback Carson Beck is set to make his first NFL start against the Los Angeles Rams this weekend. This change comes as the Cardinals have lost wide receiver Michael Wilson for the season due to a neck fracture. Beck's ascension creates uncertainty for the team's offensive output, especially for tight end Trey McBride, the last major weapon remaining on the roster.
