Carson Beck will start for the Cardinals
The Cardinals' rookie will start for the team in Week 10.
The Arizona Cardinals have officially announced Carson Beck as their starting quarterback for their Week 10 game against the Los Angeles Rams, following the injury to Gardner Minshew. This marks the third quarterback change for the Cardinals in just three weeks. Minshew, who took over for the injured Jacoby Brissett earlier in the season, suffered an injury during the Cardinals' Week 9 loss to the Seahawks.
The team has been dealing with a number of injuries to their offensive players, including wide receivers Michael Wilson and Kendrick Bourne, who are out for the rest of the season, and Jeremiyah Love, who is also injured. Carson Beck's NFL debut will come against the Rams, a team that is currently 5-4 and in desperate need to secure their playoff hopes.
The Cardinals' offense will be significantly depleted, with starter Tyler Allgeier available, but also with receivers Reggie Virgil, Simi Fehoko, Devin Duvernay, and Harrison Wallace III lining up opposite him. Virgil, a rookie from Texas Tech, is expected to be Beck's primary target. The matchup will present a significant challenge for Beck, who will face a strong defense led by Myles Garrett and Aaron Donald.
However, Beck has been given no reason to believe he will lose his starting job, as he is the team's unequivocal starting quarterback for the remainder of the season.
