Touches Climb For David Johnson

David Johnson was the workhorse Sunday.

The running back had 41 touches, carrying the ball 33 times for 113 yards and adding 58 more yards on eight catches. It could have been more – quarterback Carson Palmer targeted Johnson 13 times on passes.

“He should have had about 45 (touches) had he run better routes,” coach Bruce Arians said. “He’s still struggling running some routes that

he runs extremely well in practice.

“But when you have 95 plays, he’s going to touch it most of them.”

Johnson played 87 of the Cardinals’ 95 offensive snaps.
