For example, if one of your scripts echos JSON with strings like the following, Google will find <a class=\"quality1\" href=\"http:\/\/example.com\/card\/22\/inner-rage\"> and...
Do I need to add nofollow rel attribute to links if the href page contains a robots meta tag containing noindex and nofollow?
html,seo,meta,googlebot,nofollow
No, you don't necessarily need to use nofollow on a page that is noindexed (for technical reasons, as your question described). nofollow = "Do not pass link juice to this page. Just pretend it doesn't exist". Of course, this is just a suggestion to the search engines. noindex = "Do...
