  "account": "The Arizona Cardinals' quarterback situation took an unexpected turn after Gardner Minshew may have sustained a season-ending injury. According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, Minshew could have torn a UCL in his throwing arm during a rough hit from Seahawks pass rusher Dante Fowler in the first half of Sunday's game. Despite the injury, Minshew continued to play and finished the game 21-of-30 for 166 yards, getting sacked three times by the Seahawks defense. Minshew will undergo further testing, and if the injury proves to be season-ending, he will require extensive rehabilitation. Following the loss to the Seahawks, the Cardinals traded their veteran starter Jacoby Brissett to the Baltimore Ravens. In response, the team signed Josh Johnson off the Cincinnati Bengals' practice squad, giving them another quarterback option. Rookie Carson Beck, the Cardinals' 65th-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, is expected to start the game against the Los Angeles Rams, who have won three straight games this season.",
