RB Kenyan Drake day-to-day but unlikely to play vs. Dolphins

Cardinals RB Kenyan Drake suffered what appeared to be a serious ankle injury in their overtime win over the Seahawks in Week 7.
Drake’s injury is not thought to be as serious as it may have looked and could be back soon but unlikely this week according to coach Kliff Kingsbury.
He’s really made good progress but I’m not sure it will be enough to get him back this week, Kingsbury told reporters on Monday.
In the meantime, Chase Edmonds will handle starting duties and he will be backed up by a committee of Jonathan Ward, Eno Benjamin and perhaps D.J. Foster

Report: RB Kenyan Drake to miss ‘a few weeks’ with ankle injury

The Cardinals will be without running back Kenyan Drake for a significant amount of time. He left the game Sunday night with an ankle injury and he was visibly upset.
After X-rays and an MRI, the news isn’t good but it definitely could be worse. He will miss several weeks but should return later this season.

He will certainly be placed on injured reserve to free up the roster spot. Chase Edmonds will take over the starting role in his place.
