Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur Reveals True Severity of Carson Beck's Injury
Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur addressed Carson Beck's injury concerns after Arizona's preseason win over the Raiders.
The Arizona Cardinals defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 27-14 in their preseason opener on Thursday, with rookie Carson Beck not playing a significant role. Instead, veteran quarterbacks Gardner Minshew II, Jacoby Brissett, and second-year player Kedon Slovis contributed to the win. Beck's absence was due to a rib injury he sustained the previous week.
After the game, Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur addressed concerns about the severity of Beck's injury, stating, "Tough dude. No concern level really." LaFleur explained that if the injury had been less severe, Beck could have played, but he opted to err on the side of caution in the preseason. Beck had a notable performance in the previous preseason game against the Carolina Panthers, finishing with 188 passing yards and a touchdown.
With Arizona's next preseason games against the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers coming up, fans will be eager to see Beck return to action if LaFleur's assessment of his injury is correct.
