Cardinals not ruling out RBs James Conner, Trey Benson

Dec 24 · 1:12 PM EST

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon did not rule out RBs James Conner or Trey Benson, adding they still have a chance to play this week.

Related players: Michael Carter

Fantasy Impact:

That being said, Carter would be in for a larger workload if they have to miss Saturday, the post went on to say. The Cardinals play on Saturday in the late game so owners will have plenty of time to make the decision on any of these players. Carter did get five carries for 18 yards and also caught five balls for 30 yards.

Cardinals RB James Conner remains limited in Thursday practice

S Jalen Thompson is a Thursday add with an ankle issue. RB James Conner remains limited with a finger injury.

Related Players: Trey Benson, Emari Demercado

Fantasy Impact:

Demercado has seen far more 2024 action than Benson, but you'd have to think the rookie would see more run if Conner misses Week 10. That said, both back-ups will likely be stay-aways in most fantasy formats against the Jets defense.

Cardinals Beat: Emari Demercado in mix for RB2 job

Arizona Sports

Jul 30 · 10:52 AM EDT

For those thinking the RB2 battle was firmly between Michael Carter and rookie Trey Benson, Emari Demercado has something to say.

Throughout camp, Demercado has been a common occurrence subbing in for starter James Conner during first-team work.

Fantasy Impact:

It’s only been one day of pads, the story went on to say, but Demercado's pass-protecting ability, which earned him valuable playing time as a rookie, has been on display early on. The story went on to say keeping Murray upright is crucial to a successful season, and it’s clear the Cardinals are liking what Demercado is bringing to the table so far. It went on to say behind Conner and Demercado, Carter got first crack at second-team reps, with rookie Trey Benson subbing in for the veteran. Given the draft capital the team paid for Benson, it should only be a matter of time before he starts to make a move up the depth chart.

Cardinals activate James Conner for Week 10

The Cardinals have activated RB James Conner for Sunday’s game against the Falcons.

Fantasy Impact:

The Cardinals now have two of their biggest playmakers back for Sunday as quarterback Kyler Murray is also returning. Conner gives the Cardinals a huge boost in the running game, especially with Emari Demercado also injured. Conner should be plenty of touches as a result and should be considered as an RB2 this week.
