The Arizona Cardinals are heading into a massive week six challenge against the Los Angeles Rams this Sunday.
While the Rams likely own the strongest roster in the league on paper, they are struggling as well. Los Angeles sits at just 2-3 – only one game ahead of the Cardinals.
The Rams present a mortal challenge to Arizona still, particularly due to a strong defensive line led by Aaron Donald.
This makes the status of running back Jeremiyah Love all the more crucial this week. The rookie continues to battle through ankle issues, so the days ahead are paramount to deciding whether he takes the field or not.
Below is an update on how the 21-year-old is beginning the week.
