The Arizona Cardinals lost on Sunday 40-20 to the Houston Texans. It was again an awful loss. However, while the saying "adding insult to injury," on Sunday, the Cardinals added injuries to insult. There were three notable injuries to Cardinals players during the game we will have to pay attention to this coming week.

Practice-squad wide receiver Jalen Brooks, who has been with the team since Oct. 30, fumbled the ensuing kickoff and the Texans recovered at the 22-yard line.
