The Arizona Cardinals had a pair of players leave with injuries on Sunday in their 27-24 overtime loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Head coach Jonathan Gannon gave postgame updates and addressed them again on Monday when he spoke to reporters.
Arizona Cardinals injuries to watch in Week 13
DL Walter Nolen
Nolen had just come off the injury report last week after dealing with an injury. He left the game on Sunday with a knee injury, playing just six defensive snaps. Some suspect he hurt it when he scored his touchdown after safety Jalen Thompson forced Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence to fumble.

OL Will Hernandez
Hernandez left the game after playing 32 snaps. He left with a hip injury. Gannon said postgame it was either a hip or an oblique and clarified on Monday that it was his hip.
Gannon didn't have any update beyond that.
WR Marvin Harrison Jr., CB Will Johnson, others
The Cardinals had a few players ruled out on Sunday with injuries — Harrison (appendectomy), Johnson (back/hip), RB Trey Benson (knee), among others.
