Arizona Cardinals Quarterback Colt McCoy Carted Off Field With Leg Injury
McCoy Suffered Injury in Third Quarter of Cardinals' Game Against Dallas Cowboys
Backup Quarterback Trace McSorley Enters Game
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Colt McCoy was carted off the field with a leg injury in the third quarter of the team's game against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. McCoy was injured while being sacked by Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence. He was immediately taken to the locker room for further evaluation.
Backup quarterback Trace McSorley entered the game in relief of McCoy. McSorley is a second-year quarterback who was drafted by the Cardinals in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He has yet to start a game in his NFL career.
The Cardinals are already without starting quarterback Kyler Murray, who is dealing with a hamstring injury. Murray is expected to miss multiple games, so the Cardinals will likely rely on McSorley to start for the foreseeable future.
The Cardinals are currently trailing the Cowboys 28-14 in the fourth quarter. The outcome of the game could have a significant impact on the Cardinals' playoff hopes.
