Arizona Cardinals Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

The Cardinals have agreed to a two-year, $19 million extension with RB James Conner, according to multiple reports. That will lock Conner in with the team through 2026.

The Cardinals offense was a fantasy disappointment for most of Sunday, but TE Trey McBride caught 12 of 15 targets for 133 yards. With one of the best fantasy schedules remaining for a TE, he is locked in as a top option the rest of the way.

Harrison Jr. had another disappointing game with the whole Cardinals team taking a nosedive against the Seahawks. He only caught three of his six targets for 47 yards.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray completed 24 of 37 passes for 285 yards and no TDs. He threw an interception as well. With only two rushes for nine yards, it was an incredibly disappointing day for the entire Cardinals offense, but Murray laying an egg makes him a volatile play moving forward.

Surprisingly, Cardinals RB James Conner tied for the team league in targets with five and led the team in receiving with 80 yards. He ran the ball 12 times for 33 yards and a TD and was actually outperformed by rookie RB Trey Benson who had 62 yards rushing on 10 carries.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray set a franchise record with 17 straight completions against the Jets. He ended the game going 22-for-24 for 266 yards and a TD. Murray did score two rushing TDs with 21 yards total on the ground. After some lackluster performances, Murray getting back to fantasy relevancy was welcome this week.

Cardinals S Jalen Thompson is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets. Thompson sustained an ankle injury in Thursday's practice and then missed Friday's workout. We'll watch for updates on his status through the weekend. If Thompson can't go, rookie Dadrion Taylor-Demerson would fill in.

Cardinals RB James Conner ran 18 times for 107 yards. He also caught all three targets for 12 yards. The downside was that RBs Emari Demercado and Trey Benson scored TDs while Conner was held out of the end zone.

Bears QB Caleb Williams and Cardinals QB Kyler Murray did not have a passing or rushing TD in their match-up this week. Williams completed 22 of 41 passes for 217 yards while Murray completed 12 of 20 passes for 154 yards.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray tallied 307 yards and 2 TDs on 26-of-36 passing in a Week 8 win over Miami. He didn’t account for a turnover and avoided a sack for the third straight game.

Cardinals Edge Dennis Gardeck will miss the rest of the season after tearing his right ACL in Monday night's win over the Chargers. Gardeck suffered the injury while playing on the punt-return team. He previously tore the same ACL at the end of the 2020 season.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. has cleared the concussion protocol and will play Monday against the Chargers, according to multiple reports. That's not shocking after Harrison put in a full practice Friday. You can find Harrison in WR2 territory of our Week 7 rankings.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (concussion) progressed to a full practice on Friday. He's on pace to be cleared for Monday night's game against the Chargers. In that case, he'll play his usual allotment of snaps. The Chargers rank seventh in adjusted fantasy points allowed to WRs but will be without CB Asante Samuel and potentially CB Kristian Fulton.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (concussion) got in a limited practice on Thursday. So he's made some progress through the protocol and has a chance to be cleared in time for Monday night's game vs. the Chargers. We'll see how he progresses over the next few days.

Cardinals TE Trey McBride was the Cardinals' leading receiver catching all 8 targets for 96 yards. With Marvin Harrison Jr. leaving the game with a concussion, McBride became the first option for QB Kyler Murray

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison sustained a concussion in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Packers and has been ruled out. It's Harrison's second documented concussion, with the first coming in December 2022 at Ohio State. We'll track Harrison's progress through the protocol this coming week.

Cardinals K Matt Prater (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Packers. Chad Ryland will kick again for Arizona after connecting on three of four FGs last week, including the game-winning 35-yarder.

Cardinals K Matt Prater (knee) is "unlikely" to play vs. the Packers today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Arizona elevated K Chad Ryland from the practice squad on Saturday. Look for Ryland to handle kicking duties today.

Cardinals K Matt Prater (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. Chad Ryland will kick again for Arizona if Prater is unable to go. Avoid this situation in Week 6 fantasy lineups.

Cardinals WR Greg Dortch endured a quiet Sunday, catching one pass for 7 yards among 2 targets in the win over the 49ers. QB Kyler Murray spread 30 targets among eight Cardinals but sent 22 of them to the trio of TE Trey McBride (9), WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (7), and WR Michael Wilson (6).
