Cardinals RB James Conner (knee) could miss time

Oct 09, 2023

Cardinals running back James Conner injured his knee in Sunday’s loss to the Bengals, playing only 12 snaps.

“I’m not quite sure yet, but it looks like [Conner could miss] a little bit of time,” Gannon told Arizona Sports on Monday. “We’re still working through that. James will be back at some point but honestly just wanted to add another back for some depth there to make sure we’re OK there for practice and for the games.”

Fantasy Impact:

The Cardinals added running back Tony Jones Jr. off waivers from the Saints, a sign Conner could miss time with his injury, the story pointed out. With Ingram (neck) also injured, Demercado replaced Conner and accounted for 57 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 11 touches. Demercado could again be in line for more work if Conner has to miss time.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
