The Cardinals might consider shutting down running back Andre Ellington for the rest of the season due to hip pointer and sports hernia injuries, according to FOX Sports 910 reporter Mike Jurecki. Ellington will likely see a specialist to determine the extent of his injuries.

Ellington, who started the first 12 games, will miss his first game of the season Sunday vs. Kansas City. He has been held to less than 50 rushing yards in his last four games.
