Report: Cardinals' David Johnson Likely Out 2 Games; Chase Edmonds to Start

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson will miss the next two games because of an ankle injury.

ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported the news.

Johnson has been a key part of the offense when healthy, but the Cardinals haven't seemed to miss a beat with Chase Edmonds taking snaps out of the backfield. The second-year player burst on to the scene with a three-touchdown performance in Week 7 against the New York Giants and would be in for a big effort once again with the starter unavailable.

The receivers and tight ends will also likely see more targets in the passing game until the team is back to 100 percent.
