Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. It’ll be his first action since Week 5. In 3 healthy games this season, Conner has averaged 12.7 carries and 4.7 targets. We’ll see if RB Eno Benjamin eats into that work at all going forward.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) is expected to play vs. the Seahawks later today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. "Arizona does want to test him in pre-game warmups," Schefter adds. We won't get the Cardinals' inactives until a little after 2:30 pm ET, so you should have a late-game backup plan in place if you're hoping to use Conner. Assuming he plays, we're projecting him to step back in as Arizona's lead back. But RB Eno Benjamin could play a bigger role behind Conner than he did early in the season.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Seahawks. HC Kliff Kingsbury called him a game-time decision on Friday. This is a 4:05 pm ET kickoff, but we’ll look for an update on Conner on Sunday morning. RB Darrel Williams (hip) was placed on IR earlier this week, so Eno Benjamin will control backfield work if Conner sits again.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) was limited again in Thursday's practice. He seemingly has a shot to return for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks, but check back tomorrow for another update.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) put in a limited practice on Wednesday. He was limited last Wednesday and Thursday before missing Friday's practice and the Vikings game. RB Darrel Williams (hip) was placed on IR on Wednesday, leaving Eno Benjamin and Keaontay Ingram as Arizona's healthy RBs.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) is out for this weekend's game vs. the Vikings. He got in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday but didn't practice on Friday, so this looks like a setback. RB Darrel Williams (knee) will be a game-time decision, HC Kliff Kingsbury said. But it'll be Eno Benjamin again leading the backfield against Minnesota's 9th-ranked RB defense. Consider Benjamin a RB2 -- and a safer fantasy bet if Williams remains out.

Cardinals RBs James Conner (ribs) and Darrel Williams (knee) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We'll see what they do on Friday and how they're listed on the final injury report for this weekend's game against the Vikings.

Cardinals RBs James Conner (ribs) and Darrel Williams (knee) got in limited practices on Wednesday. Both guys seemingly have a shot to make it back for this weekend's game vs. the Vikings. We're guessing that Conner would re-assume lead duties, but RB Eno Benjamin might have earned himself a bigger role. Williams will likely return as the #3 RB.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Saints. That leaves Eno Benjamin as Arizona's lead back. He handled 15 carries and 3 targets last week and should be in for similar volume tonight. RB Corey Clement was elevated from the practice squad and joins RB Keaontay Ingram behind Benjamin.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Saints. He didn't practice all week, so we'd be surprised if he played. RB Darrel Williams (knee) has been ruled out.

Cardinals RBs James Conner (ribs) and Darrel Williams (knee) are out for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. That leaves RBs Eno Benjamin and Keaontay Ingram on the active roster, with RBs Ty'Son Williams and Corey Clement on the practice squad. We'll see if Arizona elevates Williams or Clement, but expect Benjamin to lead this backfield in carries on Sunday and handle most of the passing-down work. He's a rock-solid RB2 vs. Seattle's 26th-ranked RB defense.

Pro Football Network's Aaron Wilson hears that Cardinals RB James Conner (rib) is expected to miss Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks "and perhaps additional time." RB Darrel Williams (knee) is also likely to miss Week 6, leaving Eno Benjamin and rookie Keaontay Ingram as the healthy RBs on the active roster. RBs Ty’Son Williams and Corey Clement are on the practice squad. The 207-pound Benjamin probably won't be a workhorse this weekend, but he can contribute as a runner and pass-catcher and could approach 20 total touches.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ribs) did not practice on Wednesday. Arizona is holding out hope that he'll be able to play vs. the Seahawks this weekend, but we'd consider him no better than 50/50. Check back tomorrow for another update.
