Former Pitt stars James Conner and Aaron Donald faced off on Monday Night Football, as Conner’s Arizona Cardinals took on Donald’s Los Angeles Rams in an NFC West tilt, and both Pitt men put on solid performances.
Conner extended his latest scoring streak to seven games, becoming the first Cardinals player in the Super Bowl era to record a rushing or receiving score in seven consecutive games. The Cardinals running back’s first score was a one-yard touchdown run that tied the game at 10-10 in the second quarter. His second came on an eight-yard run in the fourth quarter and kept the Cardinals alive, as it made the score 27-20 with more than 13 minutes to play.
