Murray played every snap in the game, which is good.
Running back
Joe Rondone-USA TODAY Sports
James Conner, 64; Keaontay Ingram, 7; Corey Clement, 1
Conner played almost the entire game and then there were two running backs on the field for 6 snaps.
Wide receiver
Michael Chow-Arizona Republic
Marqiuse Brown, 64; DeAndre Hopkins, 49; A.J. Green, 35; Robbie Anderson, 28; Andre Baccellia, 1
Brown was originally going to be on a snap count but played almost every snap. Hopkins’ playing time was limited because of his hamstring.
Tight end
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports
Trey McBride, 52; Maxx Williams, 17; Stephen Anderson, 12
McBride is getting close to a Zach Ertz role. The Cardinals used more four-WR sets than in weeks past. Williams and Anderson each had a smattering of snaps.
Offensive line
Joe Rondone-USA TODAY Sports
Josh Jones, 66; Rashaad Coward, 66; Billy Price, 66; Max Garcia, 66; Kelvin Beachum, 66
The entire line played the entire game. What changed was the rotation at left guard. The previous two games, Coward rotated with Cody Ford different series.
It would appear that Coward has won the job.
