Cardinals RB Emari Demercado injured in 1st half

The Arizona Cardinals suffered an injury to the offense in the first half of their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rookie running back Emari Demercado exited the game to be evaluated for a concussion and a neck injury.

On the Cardinals’ second drive of the game, on third down, Kyler Murray threw a pass to Demercado. It was beyond his reach and Steelers linebacker Elandon Roberts hit him high and hard.

He was penalized for the play and Demercado stayed on the ground. He was later taken to the locker room to be evaluated for a concussion and neck injuries.

It was announced he was questionable to return.
