The Arizona Cardinals suffered their fourth blowout loss in six weeks, this time against the Houston Texans. They fell to 3-11 on the season.

At 3-10, each of the Arizona Cardinals' roster holes can be connected to moves made by general manager Monti Ossenfort in free agency or the draft.

The Cardinals activated second-year tackle Christian Jones. He had been on IR all season. With left tackle Paris Johnson out this week and Jonah Williams on injured reserve, it is possible he will start against the Texans. Either Jones or rookie Josh Fryar will start at one tackle spot with Kelvin Beachum on the other side.

The Arizona Cardinals released an injury update after Bam Knight exited Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans. The team posted on X that Knight was ruled out for the remainder of the game with an ankle injury. Linebacker Cody Simon was also ruled out with a knee injury.

Arizona Cardinals WR Andre Baccellia was taken off the field of NRG Stadium via stretcher late in the second quarter of Week 15's action against the Houston Texans. FOX's broadcast did say Baccellia was showing movement while down on the ground.
