Reporter Jen Hale says Johnson made an effort not to straighten his leg on the cart and was in so much pain he was biting down on his mouthpiece every time the trainers took a look at him.
Johnson, a second-year back, was having a monster season for the Cardinals. He had 1,233 rushing yards and 16 rushing touchdowns as well as 841 receiving yards and 3 receiving touchdowns.
