Link to story Cardinals | James Conner expected to play Fri Dec 27, 08:26 AM
Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner (knee) is expected to play against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 17.
| Footballguys view: Put Conner in your lineups even though the Cardinals have been eliminated from the playoffs. There's no indication that they will ease up on his workload, and even with the increased risk of re-injury, Conner's upside more than justifies a spot in Week 17 lineups. |

Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner (knee) is making progress in his recovery from his knee injury, but head coach Jonathan Gannon said he is not sure Conner will be available for the Week 17 game.
| Footballguys view: It's a short week for the Cardinals as they play against the Rams on Saturday. Conner might be shut down for this week, and rookie RB Trey Benson (ankle) might also be out of action. That means Michael Carter could be in for a large role for the Cardinals as they play out the final two games of their season. |

Cardinals | Trey McBride disappoints in Week 16 Sun Dec 22, 06:38 PM
Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride ended up with just three receptions for 20 yards on four targets in Week 16 against the Carolina Panthers.
| Footballguys view: McBride drew pass interference in the end zone, but Deejay Dallas got the touchdown on the next play. He had been one of the most consistent fantasy plays of the year, but the air finally came out of the balloon in an unlikely matchup to be so disappointing. He should still be in lineups against the Rams next week if you survived his letdown. |
Cardinals | Marvin Harrison Jr. targeted eight times Sun Dec 22, 06:29 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison ended up with four receptions for 39 yards on eight targets in Week 16 against the Carolina Panthers.
| Footballguys view: Harrison was a dud again this week and you can't blame it on the cornerback matchup this time. Kyler Murray and offensive Drew Petzing haven't devised ways for Harrison make a big impact on the outcome of the game and fantasy matchups yet. He had his biggest game of the year against the Rams in one quarter of the first matchup, but isn't an automatic fantasy play in the rematch next week. |

Cardinals | James Conner Has Big Day Despite Injury: Week 17 Status Unclear Sun Dec 22, 06:20 PM
Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner (knee) was unable to return after leaving the Week 16 game against the Carolina Panthers due to a knee injury. He still ended up with 15 rushes for 117 yards and a touchdown, while adding four receptions for a game-high 49 receiving yards on four targets.
| Footballguys view: Conner exited in the third quarter but delivered a huge game with 166 scrimmage yards. Conner also reached 1,000 yards rushing for the second straight season. His total sits at a career-best 1,090. Conner has topped 100 yards rushing in back-to-back games and six times this season. Trey Benson was unavailable in Carolina due to an ankle injury. As Pro Football Focus' Nathan Jahnke noted, the injury to Benson led Conner to play more than usual early, with DeeJay Dallas chipping in behind him. Once Conner left due to his injury, Michael Carter took over as the primary back. Whether Conner or Benson will be healthy for Saturday's game against the host Los Angeles Rams isn't yet known. We'll follow up as needed. |

Cardinals | Kyler Murray totals two touchdowns Sun Dec 22, 06:13 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Kyler Murray completed 20-of-32 passes for 202 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Week 16 against the Carolina Panthers, while adding eight runs for 63 yards and a score.
| Footballguys view: Murray's running made him a good fantasy play, but the outcome of the game ended the Cardinals playoff hopes and made this a disappointing season for him in NFL terms. He'll be a boom/bust QB1 against the Rams on Saturday with the Cardinals probably a bit deflated and playing on a short week of rest. |

Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner (knee) suffered a knee injury during the Week 16 game and is considered questionable to return.
| Footballguys view: Conner did more than enough to help fantasy teams win, with 166 total yards and a score, but did not return to the game. With a short week of rest and the Cardinals eliminated from the playoffs, don't count on having him for the Saturday game against the Rams next week. Trey Benson is also banged up, so it could be Michael Carter and Deejay Dallas in the backfield for Arizona next week. |

Cardinals | Fade, go routes have not favored Marvin Harrison Jr. Fri Dec 20, 01:51 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. has caught only four of the 26 passes thrown to him on go or fade routes in 2024.
| Footballguys view: As NBC Sports' Kyle Dvorchak noted this week, only two receivers drafted in the top 10 have averaged fewer than 50 yards per game as a rookie before posting multiple WR1 seasons since 2000. Harrison is averaging 49 yards per game. Dvorchak further noted that two rookies who had quiet debuts only to explode later in their careers are Larry Fitzgerald and Plaxico Burress. So there's long-term hope. As for those looking at Harrison this week in a favorable matchup against the Panthers, we'll remind you Harrison only has two WR1 performances this season. He's scored single-digit PPR points in eight of his 14 games this year. Set your expectations accordingly. |
Cardinals | Trey Benson ruled out Fri Dec 20, 11:50 AM
Arizona Cardinals RB Trey Benson (ankle) was ruled out for the Week 16 game against the Carolina Panthers on Friday, Dec. 20.
| Footballguys view: With running back Emari Demercado (back) on injured reserve, DeeJay Dallas moves into the No. 2 role behind James Conner, who should be very busy against a generous Panthers run defense. The team also has Michael Carter on the practice squad. The former Jet could be promoted for additional depth. |
Cardinals | James Conner set to run wild? Thu Dec 19, 10:17 PM
