The Arizona Cardinals need to get back on track against the New England Patriots to end their three-game losing streak. In the game, some players have some milestones within their reach.

Let’s see what the players can accomplish this season and in their careers if the Cardinals hopefully win.

RB James Conner

Conner needs two yards to pass Terry Metcalf and move into seventh place on the franchise’s all-time list for career rushing yards. At 53 he will pass John David Crow for sixth place and at 70 he will pass Charley Trippi for fifth place.

With a monster game of 172 he can overtake Johnny Roland and take fourth place.

Trey McBride

With two receptions, he will break his franchise single-season record for receptions by a tight end. He had 81 last season.

With 49 receiving yards, he will reach 900 this season, making him just the second tight end in franchise history to have at least 900 receiving yards.

Marvin Harrison Jr.

With 49 receiving yards, he became just the fifth rookie receiver in franchise history to reach 700 yards.
