A big loss: Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur said LT Paris Johnson Jr. tore his bicep and now will be out for the season. https Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: Mike LaFleur said left tackle Paris Johnson Jr. tore his bicep. Arizona ruled him out for the season.

Why it matters: Losing the starting left tackle forces a reset of Arizona's edge protection. The Cardinals now carry that vacancy through the rest of the schedule.

What to watch: Watch who Arizona designates at left tackle next.
