Losing Johnson will be a major blow for Arizona, as he accounted for a huge portion of their offense in 2016 and was expected to have an equally big — if not bigger — role this season. Johnson was on the receiving end of a big hit in Week 1, but he returned for the start of the following offensive series. He fumbled on his first carry, and it was later revealed that he had suffered a serious wrist injury.
