Cardinals

Cardinals RB David Johnson admitted that he’s made “too many mental errors” that have negatively impacted the team.

“You can’t fumble, that’s giving the other team an opportunity to score, especially where I did it at,” Johnson said, via AzCardinals.com. “Anytime I fumble, or I miss a block and like I said put pressure on Josh and get him hit, it’s never a good thing.”

Even so, Cardinals HC Steve Wilks doesn’t seem to be concerned about Johnson moving forward.

“David is a perfectionist,” Wilks said. “He wants to do it right every time. He had some things that he wishes he could take back, but he did some things well out there. When you have players like that that aren’t really concerned about the great plays, but are trying to make sure that they make the corrections on the ones they messed up, that’s when you’re going to see a difference in your team. I’m excited that he’s expressing that, and I know that he’s going to make the corrections.”
