With the Arizona Cardinals putting quarterback Gardner Minshew on the injured reserve after suffering a torn UCL in his throwing elbow, the door has opened for a notable rookie to be under center on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. As Cardinals rookie Carson Beck is in line for his first NFL start, head coach Mike LaFleur would make it official on Wednesday.
Speaking to the media after the moves made by Arizona regarding Minshew, LaFleur would put the speculation to rest, confirming that Beck will be getting the start against the Rams on Sunday, according to Bo Brack.
“Yeah, Carson [Beck] will be the starter,” LaFleur said.
