Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love apparently has 'new' ankle injury, per Mike LaFleur Mon Nov 2, 04:49 PM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love apparently has a "new" ankle injury, head coach Mike LaFleur said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Love was ruled out of Sunday's win over the Cowboys with an ankle injury after nine carries for 23 yards. RB Tyler Allgeier rushed for 147 yards in Sunday's game, and with RB Zonovan Knight in the concussion protocol, the Cardinals' backfield depth is thin, which makes a trade of Allgeier less appealing for Arizona. It might also make him a viable fantasy option in a tough matchup against the Seahawks in Week 9. |

Cardinals | Kendrick Bourne's ankle injury 'not looking good,' possibly season-ending Mon Nov 2, 04:42 PM
Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said on Monday that WR Kendrick Bourne's ankle injury is not looking good and could possibly be season-ending.
| Footballguys view: Bourne needed help walking on the sideline and was ruled out with the injury during Sunday's win over the Cowboys. Reggie Virgil was also hurt in Dallas, so the Cowboys will be thin at wideout behind Michael Wilson, who is playing with two broken ribs. Simi Fehoko and Devin Duvernay are the healthy receivers on the regular roster. We'll be looking for more on the team's plans at the position in coming days. |

Cardinals | LaFleur confirms Minshew will start, Carson Beck to be the backup Mon Nov 2, 04:32 PM
Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur confirmed on Monday that QB Gardner Minshew II will start, one day after his heroics led to a dramatic win over the Cowboys. LaFleur added that rookie QB Carson Beck will be the backup. QB Jacoby Brissett "heads to the bench," NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported.
| Footballguys view: In fact, Brissett will be the emergency third quarterback, with rookie QB Carson Beck moving up to the No. 2 spot. Could a trade be coming for Brissett? It's worth watching. |

Cardinals | LaFleur has made no decision on Week 9 starting QB after Minshew's comeback Sun Nov 1, 05:40 PM
Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said on Sunday he has made no decisions about the team's starting quarterback for Week 9 against the Seahawks.
| Footballguys view: Gardner Minshew II replaced Jacoby Brissett with 1:35 left in the third quarter and the Cardinals trailing 17-3, then led touchdown drives on his first four possessions in a 33-30 overtime win over the Cowboys, finishing 17-of-23 for 188 yards and three touchdowns. LaFleur said he made the change because the team needed "a spark," adding, "I thought his timing was great... He's about as resilient as they come." LaFleur also said, "I know what the story is going to be, and so does [Brissett], but it was the collective." Stay tuned. |

Cardinals | Michael Wilson says he has two broken ribs Sun Nov 1, 05:19 PM
Cardinals WR Michael Wilson said on Sunday that he has two broken ribs.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com's Donnie Druin noted, Wilson gutted it out for the Cardinals in a big way, finishing the day with eight receptions for 111 yards and a game-tying touchdown with six seconds remaining. He also added a 17-yard rush in overtime to help put Arizona in position to kick a game-winning field goal. With Kendrick Bourne (ankle) and Reggie Virgil (undisclosed) both leaving early, Arizona's receiving corps is in serious question heading into a matchup against a Seahawks defense that ranks No. 1 versus wide receivers in Week 9. |

Cardinals | Allgeier runs for 147 yards, one TD, one receiving TD in win over Cowboys Sun Nov 1, 04:40 PM
Arizona Cardinals RB Tyler Allgeier ran 11 times for 147 yards and a touchdown and also caught 5 passes for 44 yards and a touchdown on 5 targets in Sunday's 33-30 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He was projected for 5.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 33.6.
| Footballguys view: Allgeier was quiet in the first half, but after Jeremiyah Love (ankle) and Bam Knight (concussion) both left with injuries, he was the team's offense for a couple of drives that turned the game around and may have sunk the Cowboys' season. Allgeier faces a stout Seahawks run defense next week, but should still be a flex play at worst assuming Knight and Love can't go. |

Cardinals | Minshew throws for 188 yards, three touchdowns in win over Cowboys Sun Nov 1, 04:40 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Gardner Minshew II completed 17 of 23 passes for 188 yards with 3 touchdowns in Sunday's 33-30 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He was projected for 0.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 19.5.
| Footballguys view: Minshew should be added in 2QB/Superflex leagues, but he is only a desperation play in Seattle in Week 9, and third-round pick Carson Beck should start as soon as the team deems him ready, so Minshew's rest of season value is uncertain, especially since he won't face Dallas again. |

Cardinals | Wilson catches 8 passes for 111 yards, a touchdown in win over Cowboys Sun Nov 1, 04:40 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Michael Wilson ran 1 time for 17 yards and also caught 8 passes for 111 yards and a touchdown on 15 targets in Sunday's 33-30 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He was projected for 10.5 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 22.8.
| Footballguys view: Wilson played through a painful rib injury that didn't stop him from laying out for a touchdown in the waning seconds that would have won the game if Chad Ryland hadn't missed the extra point. Wilson contributed to the game-winning field goal drive and should be in lineups even though the Cardinals are traveling to Seattle in Week 9 as long as he is able to play through this injury. |

Cardinals | Brissett held to 119 passing yards in win over Cowboys Sun Nov 1, 04:40 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett completed 10 of 23 passes for 119 yards and 1 interception in Sunday's 33-30 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He was projected for 18.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 4.5.
| Footballguys view: Gardner Minshew II led the Cardinals back from a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit, so he should be the Week 9 starter at Seattle -- which means we could see Brissett next week before the game is over. Either way, third-round pick Carson Beck should start as soon as the team thinks he is physically and mentally ready. |

Cardinals | WR Reggie Virgil injured in the fourth quarter vs. Cowboys Sun Nov 1, 04:01 PM
Cardinals WR Reggie Virgil was injured on a play in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Cowboys with 2:23 left. He did not return.
| Footballguys view: Virgil collided hard with the base of the goalpost while diving for a deep pass in the fourth quarter. He was in significant pain and had to be carted off the field to the locker room. The injury added to a heavily depleted Arizona wide receiver room that also saw Kendrick Bourne exit with an ankle injury during the same matchup. We'll follow up as needed. |

Cardinals | Cardinals rule out Jeremiyah Love against Cowboys Sun Nov 1, 03:09 PM
Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Cowboys. Love had earlier been listed as questionable to return with an ankle injury and went for X-rays. Arizona was trailing Dallas 17-3 when he was ruled out, one of three offensive players the Cardinals lost during the game.
| Footballguys view: Love joins Lamar Jackson on the list of players whose Week 8 made us feel like their 2026 season is star-crossed. He had nine carries for 23 yards, including a play when he was stopped on fourth-and-goal at the 1 before leaving the game. Tyler Allgeier could start next week with Bam Knight also suffering a concussion in this game. The Seahawks, Rams, and Chiefs are up over the next three weeks. That's a tough schedule even though Allgeier was the entire offense in the second half with a 63-yard touchdown run and a 5-yard touchdown catch on the way to one of the biggest running back performances of the season. He'll be a priority waiver wire add anywhere he is available. |

Cardinals | Kendrick Bourne ruled out with ankle injury against Cowboys Sun Nov 1, 03:01 PM
Cardinals WR Kendrick Bourne has been ruled out of Sunday's game at the Cowboys with an ankle injury. Bourne had been seen getting help walking on the sideline earlier in the game.
| Footballguys view: Michael Wilson was playing through a rib injury and got a big uptick in targets with Gardner Minshew II in at quarterback and Bourne out of the game with an ankle injury. We'll watch the practice reports heading into the matchup against the Seahawks next week so you'll know if Wilson is available for the tough matchup. |

Cardinals | Budda Baker on trade speculation: 'I just live in the present' Fri Oct 30, 02:09 PM
Cardinals S Budda Baker said on Friday that he is not concerned with speculation that he could be a trade candidate ahead of the November 10 trade deadline. "I just live in the present, like today having a great time with (the media), and going to have a great Friday practice," Baker said. "I'm going to just focus on playing the Dallas Cowboys at their stadium." Baker told ESPN he had not asked for a trade but had not asked not to be traded either; he is under contract through 2027 and already has a career-best 3.5 sacks this season.

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love will play Sunday against Cowboys, LaFleur says Fri Oct 30, 01:35 PM
Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love will play Sunday against the Cowboys, head coach Mike LaFleur said on Friday. Love, who has been dealing with an ankle injury, was limited in practice on Thursday after missing the Cardinals' last two games.
| Footballguys view: After a two-week absence, Love will make his return. The rookie suffered a high ankle sprain this preseason, and his efficiency was trending down every week of the regular season as he worked through it. The Cardinals decided to put him on ice for a couple of weeks, and he'll hope to return healthy. He's a high-ceiling RB2 in fantasy lineups. The big question is how backup work will be split between Tyler Allgeier and Bam Knight. Knight has handily outplayed Allgeier over the last couple of weeks and earned a larger role. One of Knight or Allgeier could be inactive for this matchup, and savvy fantasy managers can drop the inactive back for a waiver option with a higher ceiling. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love limited again Thursday Thu Oct 29, 07:16 PM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) was limited in practice again on Thursday. Love missed the last two games with the ankle injury before returning to practice this week.
| Footballguys view: Love has missed time, and the Cardinals are wisely being cautious with their star rookie. He's set to return this week, but a full participation on Friday would make us feel a lot better about his status. |

Cardinals | Tyler Allgeier not on field for open portion of Wednesday practice Wed Oct 28, 06:05 PM
Cardinals RB Tyler Allgeier was not on the field during the open portion of Wednesday's practice. He was among a handful of Arizona players absent during the viewing window ahead of Sunday's game at Dallas.
| Footballguys view: Allgeier ran the ball eight times for 19 yards in the Cardinals' Week 7 loss to the Broncos, plus he had three catches for 30 yards. He's barely getting more work than Bam Knight, and Allgeier hasn't been much of a fantasy factor. We see him as a flex play if Jeremiyah Love has to miss more time. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love will be back at practice Wednesday, LaFleur says Tue Oct 27, 01:08 AM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love will be back at practice on Wednesday, head coach Mike LaFleur said Monday. Love has missed the last two games with an ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Love injured his right ankle in the preseason. He played through his left ankle injury, which he sustained in Week 4, before the Cardinals shut him down to let it heal. Bam Knight and Tyler Allgeier have replaced Love in the backfield. Love has 67 carries for 245 yards and a touchdown, and 11 catches for 36 yards and a touchdown. |

Cardinals | Jalen Brooks has wrist surgery, 'done for the season'; Fehoko to fill his role Mon Oct 26, 10:59 PM
Cardinals WR Jalen Brooks had surgery on Monday to repair the wrist he injured late in Sunday's loss to the Broncos, when he was tackled at the Denver 1-yard line at the end of a 35-yard catch. "Have to get an emergency surgery on my wrist. I don't need any phone calls. Just Prayer. I'll be done for the season," Brooks posted. He played in all seven games without a start, catching five of 17 targets for 81 yards, and his targets had increased after the Cardinals traded WR Marvin Harrison Jr. WR Simi Fehoko, who has mostly played special teams, will now fill Brooks' role on offense.

Cardinals | WR Jalen Brooks to undergo season-ending wrist surgery Mon Oct 26, 02:35 PM
Cardinals WR Jalen Brooks announced on social media on Monday that he will undergo season-ending wrist surgery.
| Footballguys view: Brooks has taken on an expanded role since the Marvin Harrison Jr. trade moved him up the depth chart. He is tied for fourth on the Cardinals this season with 17 targets. Without Brooks, the Cardinals have five active wide receivers and two more on the practice squad. Michael Wilson (37), Kendrick Bourne (25), and Reggie Virgil (2) are the only members of that group with a catch this season. The other receivers are Devin Duvernay, Simi Fehoko, Shedrick Jackson (on the practice squad), and Harrison Wallace III (also on the practice squad). |

Cardinals | LaFleur says Jacoby Brissett will continue to be QB1 after loss to Broncos Sun Oct 25, 07:47 PM
Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said on Sunday that QB Jacoby Brissett will continue to be the team's starting quarterback following the 30-16 home loss to the Broncos. LaFleur appeared to understand that questions about the quarterback position will keep coming.
| Footballguys view: Brissett was hit repeatedly by the Broncos. He was sacked three times, and the Broncos were credited with 13 quarterback hits. Perhaps things will get better in a more favorable matchup against the Cowboys in Week 8. |

Cardinals | McBride catches 10 passes for 111 yards, a touchdown in loss to Broncos Sun Oct 25, 07:31 PM
Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride caught 10 passes for 111 yards and a touchdown on 13 targets in Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Denver Broncos. He was projected for 12.9 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 22.1.
| Footballguys view: It was National Tight Ends Day on Sunday, and McBride, as he does on game days, holiday or not, was excellent again. As CBSSports.com notes, McBride became the first tight end in NFL history to record 400 regular-season catches in his first four seasons, bolstering his career total to 406. McBride has recorded at least seven receptions in all seven games this season while scoring four times heading into a Week 8 matchup with a weak Dallas pass defense. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love ruled out for second straight game with ankle injury Fri Oct 23, 01:33 PM
Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love will miss Sunday's Week 7 game against the Broncos, head coach Mike LaFleur said on Friday. It will be the second straight game Love misses as he rests his ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Love will miss his second straight game as he recovers from a high ankle sprain suffered this preseason. Love valiantly played through the injury, but it was starting to affect him, so the team is giving him a short-term rest. Expect Tyler Allgeier to start and Bam Knight to work in, with the latter having more appeal in PPR leagues. It's unclear exactly when Love will return, but fantasy managers with winning records might want to buy low in hopes the rookie becomes a late-season riser. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love's ankle doesn't 'seem to bother' him at youth event Wed Oct 21, 03:00 PM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love moved without apparent trouble at the team's Jr. Cardinals Flag Football kickoff event on Wednesday. "A few stutter steps, light cuts and horizontal movement don't seem to bother Love's ankle," based on video of Love with the kids at the event. Love missed last week's game against the Rams with the ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: After missing last week's game, it would've been nice to see Love out there on the first day of preparation for Week 7 against the Broncos. Instead, the talented rookie seems to be on the wrong side of questionable. Let's all circle back to see if he can at least be limited on Friday. Tyler Allgeier would get more work against the Broncos if Love can't play. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love ruled out vs. Rams, Tyler Allgeier to start Fri Oct 16, 01:33 PM
Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love (left ankle) will not play Sunday against the Rams, head coach Mike LaFleur said on Friday. RB Tyler Allgeier will start, with RB Bam Knight as the backup, and the Cardinals are expected to elevate RB Evan Hull from the practice squad as a third option. LaFleur said earlier in the week that getting the rookie healthy was "vital." Love, who sprained his right ankle in his only preseason game, played against the Lions last week, gaining 22 yards on 12 carries, and was held out of practice this week.
| Footballguys view: LaFleur was oddly hesitant when asked if Love would be placed on IR. Although he technically answered, "No," the pause beforehand carried weight. After Week 4's loss, Love notoriously said, "This is going to be the longest season of my life." He managed just 1.8 yards per carry last week and missed this week's practice and subsequent game. A quick reset could help the young running back, who has clearly been managing his injured ankle. In his absence, expect Tyler Allgeier to carry the ball most of the time. Bam Knight could work in on passing downs. |

Cardinals | Brissett says McBride's frustration was 'about the double-team stuff' Wed Oct 14, 05:48 PM
Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett said on Wednesday that TE Trey McBride's frustration was "about the double-team stuff." "I had to bring the tablet over, and I'm like, 'Look, bro, I don't know what you want. I can't force that in and put the team in jeopardy,'" Brissett said. "He understands that. It's the competitor in him."
| Footballguys view: McBride is one of the most competitive players in the league, and that's why he's one of the best tight ends in the game. Brissett won't be too risky with the ball, and that has to be frustrating for a guy like McBride who feels like he can make a play regardless of the coverage... and he's not too far off in that sentiment. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love sitting out Wednesday practice with ankle issue Wed Oct 14, 04:53 PM
Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love sat out practice on Wednesday with an ankle issue. The team will see how the week goes in terms of his availability for Sunday's game against the Rams.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs need to keep their head on a swivel here. Love's ankle was being managed last week before he was cleared to play against the Lions, and he was held to 22 yards on 12 carries in that loss. We'll see if he can do more as the week of practice rolls on. Reports indicate Love is managing the high-ankle sprain from the preseason and he may have picked up an injury to his other ankle too. |

Cardinals | Cardinals not expected to turn to Carson Beck until 'late November' Wed Oct 14, 02:32 PM
The Cardinals are not expected to switch to rookie QB Carson Beck until late November, when their schedule eases, ESPN's Dan Graziano reported. "I absolutely expect the Cardinals to take a look at Beck at some point this season, though I've been told it might not happen until late November," Graziano said, pointing to a stretch of at Rams, vs. Broncos, at Cowboys, at Seahawks, vs. Rams and at Chiefs as "a bit of a gauntlet for a rookie QB." Graziano added that Beck could play sooner "especially if Brissett gets traded at the deadline," but "I don't get the sense the Cardinals are planning to rush this." Weinfuss echoed the report, saying he had said the same thing.
| Footballguys view: A third-round pick out of Miami, Beck could be a player you'd want to build around. They're good with Brissett as their starter for now, but it only makes sense to take a look at a young quarterback when the team is going nowhere in 2026. When Beck takes over, it would likely ding the fantasy value of Cardinals skill-position players. |

Cardinals | Love held to 22 yards on 12 carries in loss to Lions Sun Oct 11, 07:31 PM
Arizona Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love ran 12 times for 22 yards in Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Detroit Lions. He was projected for 11.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 2.2.
| Footballguys view: Sunday's game was the third time in the past four weeks that Love has been held to single-digit scores. As ESPN.com notes, his underlying metrics were poor (5-for-12 stuffed at or behind the line, minus-21 rushing yards over expectation). With the Rams up next and a strong backup in Tyler Allgeier challenging for carries, Love has much to prove before he becomes a lineup lock for fantasy managers. |

Cardinals | Brissett throws for 292 yards, three touchdowns in loss to Lions Sun Oct 11, 07:31 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett completed 29 of 47 passes for 292 yards with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception and also caught 1 pass for 7 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Detroit Lions. He was projected for 18.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 25.8.
| Footballguys view: With an inconsistent and, at times, non-existent running game, NFL.com argues the Cardinals offense has essentially been reduced to a chuck-and-pray attack as Brissett attempted more than 45 passes for a second time in three weeks. That's not horrible for fantasy investors, but it's fair to wonder about Brissett's job security as the losses mount. A possible positive? The trade of Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Texans will narrow the funnel for Trey McBride, Michael Wilson, and Kendrick Bourne. |

Cardinals | Texans 'square in the mix' for Marvin Harrison Jr. as Cardinals finalize trade Sat Oct 10, 11:24 AM
The Texans have held trade talks with the Cardinals about WR Marvin Harrison Jr. and are "thought to be square in the mix" for him, according to sources. A Texans source said of the team's interest, "I can't confirm or deny at this time." Arizona is finalizing a deal to trade Harrison and informed him Saturday morning that he will be inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions while details are worked out, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport also reported.
| Footballguys view: Harrison is out of action this week, and we should see a deal finalized in the near future. The Texans are (as of this reporting) the lone team with reported interest, but there's plenty of speculation a team like the Las Vegas Raiders could be involved in a trade. The Cardinals are moving on from the former first-round pick as he often seems uninterested on the field, and Harrison has not produced much (five catches for 85 yards and one touchdown in 2026). A new landing spot could propel him to finally play up to his potential. |
