Rudolph has 30 catches for 313 yards with three touchdowns, including a 31-yard TD grab against the Cowboys.
Rudolph fractured his foot on his touchdown play in the third quarter Frazier said. “He just got twisted there. I think (a Cowboys player) fell on his foot when he was tackling him. It was a very significant injury for him for our team.”
Frazier, though, is optimistic other players will step up.
“Chase Ford, who played in the ball game and did a good job for us, he’ll play,” Frazier said. “John Carlsonwill get more reps. Hopefully, we’ll get Rhett (Ellison) back (from an ankle injury after missing two games).”
