Arizona Cardinals RB Coach Denson Manages Team Amid Injuries

Arizona Cardinals running backs coach Autry Denson emphasized the high standards maintained in the running back room despite injuries to key players James Conner and Trey Benson, highlighting the versatility and unique strengths of players like Michael Carter and Emari Demarcado. At Oklahoma State, head coach Brent Brennan described quarterback Zach Flores as a dual-threat player who has struggled statistically but has shown improvement in recent games following the firing of longtime head coach Mike Gundy. Meanwhile, at Oklahoma, assistant quarterbacks coach John Kuceyeski, despite never playing quarterback himself, has become a respected figure for his work with quarterbacks under offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle, whose rising profile as an offensive mind and potential head coach candidate is drawing national attention. Arbuckle, credited with revitalizing Oklahoma's offense and building strong player relationships, remains focused on the current season amid speculation about his future coaching opportunities. Additionally, Zevi Eckhaus's journey from limited offers to starting quarterback for Washington State highlights the emergence of new talent in college football's quarterback ranks.
