Source: Cards RB Drake likely out a few weeks

TEMPE, Ariz. — The Arizona Cardinals will likely be without leading rusher Kenyan Drake for the next few weeks.

Drake is expected to miss “a few weeks” with a slight tear in a ligament in his ankle, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Cardinals are treating the injury like a high ankle sprain, the source said.

Without Drake, the Cardinals will rely on Chase Edmonds to be their primary ball carrier. He had 58 yards on five carries and 87 yards on seven catches in Sunday night’s 37-34 overtime victory over the Seattle Seahawks.
