David Johnson Absent Again Thursday
5 years agoArizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (back) wasn't seen at the open part of practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Johnson battled through some back issues in the Week 5 win, but he's being evaluated this week and is in real danger at this point of missing Week 6's excellent matchup with the free-falling Falcons Defense. Johnson will need to get in some practice work on Friday to have a chance of playing on Sunday. If that doesn't happen, Chase Edmonds would be the lead back against Atlanta and would have RB1 upside in that matchup. Pick Edmonds up immediately if he's available and you need a running back, regardless of if you own Johnson or not.
