When Arizona Cardinals second-string quarterback Drew Stanton left Thursday night's game against the Rams with a knee injury, all eyes turned to inexperienced third-stringer Ryan Lindley.

But around that time, it appeared that Lindley was somehow busy on Twitter giving away free Bibles.

Stay tuned. Going to randomly offer 25 Bibles to my Followers thru Tuesday. Will you accept my gift of a new Bible?#HolidayBibleGiveaway

The dueling responsiblities -- throwing passes against a divisional rival, and operating a generous holiday Bible giveaway on Twitter -- caused some confusion, but there's an incredibly innocent explanation:

Please note all tweets regarding the #HolidayBibleGiveaway are made by @A4C_ATHLETES. We tweet for Ryan relating to his charitable projects.

Cardinals coach Bruce Arians has a lot of magic underneath that red cap of his but if Stanton is down for a while, he may want to give Kurt Warner a call.
