LaFleur officially names Beck the Week 10 starter
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- The Arizona Cardinals will start rookie quarterback Carson Beck in Week 10 against the Rams due to injuries to Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew, with Minshew sidelined by a UCL injury.
- Beck impressed in his preseason appearance, throwing for 188 yards and a touchdown, but faces a challenging situation with a depleted receiving corps including losses of Michael Wilson and Kendrick Bourne for the season.
- Tight end Trey McBride remains a top fantasy option despite the team's struggles, consistently receiving a high share of targets and scoring touchdowns even as the Cardinals’ offense faces adversity.
- Several key players across NFL teams, including 49ers cornerbacks Deommodore Lenoir and Renardo Green, Jaguars’ Travon Walker and Chris Rodriguez, and Bills’ Dion Dawkins, are dealing with injuries that may impact their availability for Week 10.
- The Cardinals’ offensive line is also weakened ahead of their matchup with the Rams, with starting center Hjalte Froholdt sidelined due to a concussion and backup Jon Gaines missing practice with an ankle injury.
