The Arizona Cardinals look to avoid a three-game losing streak this week against the Kansas City Chiefs. They'll have to do it short-handed.

Running back Andre Ellington missed his third straight practice on Friday because of a hip injury and was ruled out for Sunday's game, head coach Bruce Arians said. Stepfan Taylor will get the start and running back Marion Grice should see some work, too.

The Cardinals might get wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald back after he missed two games with a knee injury. Arians said Fitzgerald will be a game-time decision on Sunday.

After scoring just 21 points in the last two weeks combined (both losses), the Cardinals must find some juice on offense in a hurry.
