Cardinals offensive stalwarts Deandre Hopkins and James Conner are awaiting MRIs on their leg and ankle, respectively, after ending last night's loss on the turf. Neither injury looks to be serious, and we expect both players to be available for Kyler Murray and 10-3 Arizona in its Week 15 bout with Detroit. The all-pro wide receiver initially looked to suffer a concussion after hitting the back of his head on the turf, but head coach Kliff Kingsbury confirmed he avoided a concussion, but he injured his right leg on an incomplete pass in the back left corner of the end zone late in the contest. Conner suffer a left ankle injury on the 2nd-to-last play, limping his way through the unsuccessful final play before getting medical attention during the Rams' postgame celebration. Conner is 2nd in the NFL with 16 total touchdowns, while Hopkins leads the Cardinals with 8 receiving touchdowns and 3rd with 42 receptions and 572 receiving yards.
