Hernandez (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday. The move for Hernandez was expected with reports surfacing that he suffered a season-ending injury in the Cardinals' win over the 49ers on Sunday. His absence will open up an opportunity for Trystan Colon to start at right guard.
Hernandez is expected to be placed on injured reserve after sustaining a left knee injury in Sunday's 24-23 win over the 49ers, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. Reports earlier Monday indicated that Hernandez's left knee injury was likely season-ending, so his expected move to IR comes as no surprise. With Hernandez likely sidelined for the remainder of the Cardinals' 2024 campaign, expect Trystan Colon to serve as the team's top right guard.
Hernandez (knee) is believed to have suffered a season-ending injury in Sunday's win over the 49ers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Hernandez was carted to the locker room after suffering the injury, which will seemingly end his season early, although the details of it are still unknown. The UTEP product was enjoying what was likely the best season of his seven-year career. Trystan Colon will now likely handle right guard for the Cardinals moving forward.
Hernandez has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the 49ers due to a knee injury. Hernandez was carted to the locker room after he was rolled up while blocking on a James Conner rushing attempt. Trystan Colon has taken over at right guard.
Hernandez drew a questionable tag following a limited practice session Friday. The limited practice came following back-to-back DNPs, so he has quickly returned to health. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual responsibilities at right guard.
Hernandez was unable to return after leaving with the injury, but's still unclear how severe it may be. More information likely won't be known until the team releases its first injury report for Week 10 against the Falcons.
