Quentin Groves Out With Plantar Fasciitis

The Arizona Cardinals posted a 38-10 victory over the Detroit Lions on Sunday, ending a nine game losing streak. However, they lost linebacker Quentin Groves with an injury to his right foot. He was seen with a walking boot in the locker room after the game.
Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic is reporting that Groves actually has plantar fasciitis. Losing him would be a significant loss to the Cardinals, but with just two games left in the season, the team may elect to put him on the injured reserve.
Groves has played fairly well in his first season with the Cardinals, compiling 44 tackles, four sacks, and one blocked kick in 14 games. His sacks were the first he's recorded since his rookie season in 2008 with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
If the Cardinals do decide to place Groves on the injured reserve, they will have left Reggie Walker and rookie Zach Nash to fill in the outside linebacker role. First stringer O'Brien Shofield was placed on the injured reserve in early November after his left ankle injury required surgery.
