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.

Cardinals S Budda Baker (ribs) and DE Zach Allen (ankle) are questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. Allen managed only 1 limited practice, Friday. Baker put in limited workouts Thursday and Friday after sitting out Wednesday.

Cardinals RB James Conner (heel) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Cowboys. He returned to a limited practice on Friday after missing the first 2 workouts of the week. HC Kliff Kingsbury has called Conner a game-time decision. Cardinals-Cowboys doesn’t kick off until 4:25 pm ET, but we’ll look for a Conner update on Sunday morning.

Cardinals RB James Conner (heel) missed practice again on Thursday. Beat writers saw him on the field for the start of practice, but he evidently didn't do enough to even earn a "limited" tag. Fantasy owners can't be counting on Conner playing vs. the Cowboys this weekend at this point, but we'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Cardinals RB James Conner (heel) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Kliff Kingsbury labeled him "day to day," but there's certainly a chance that Conner misses this weekend's game vs. Dallas. Check back tomorrow for another update.

Ravens DL Calais Campbell (thigh), EDGE Odafe Oweh (illness) and Brandon Stephens (illness) are active for today's game against the Bengals.

6:47pm UTC 12/25/21

Cardinals RB James Conner (heel) is inactive for tonight's game agains the Colts. That leaves Arizona's backfield to Chase Edmonds, Eno Benjamin and Jonathan Ward. Edmonds should handle the bulk of the work and is a strong fantasy play tonight.

Cardinals RB James Conner (heel) is listed as questionable for Saturday night's game vs. the Colts. He didn't practice all week. HC Kliff Kingsbury labeled Conner a game-time decision. Conner said that this is a pain-management issue and that he's "confident" he'll play on Saturday. We'll get Arizona's inactives around 7 pm ET.

Cardinals RB James Conner has yet to practice this week and is on the injury report with a heel. It was an ankle issue that had him questionable going into last week's game vs. the Lions. We'll see if Conner practices tomorrow and then how he's listed on the final injury report for Saturday's game vs. the Colts.

11:33am UTC 12/19/21

Jets RB Michael Carter (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Dolphins. It’ll be his first action since suffering a high-ankle sprain back in Week 11. HC Robert Saleh said this week that Carter will play a "significant role" today. He'd averaged 13 carries and 6.2 targets across his last 6 healthy games. Don’t expect that many targets with Zach Wilson under center, but 13 carries is a fair projection. RBs Ty Johnson and La’Mical Perine are healthy scratches today, leaving Tevin Coleman and Austin Walter behind Carter.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Lions today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Conner is listed as questionable after getting in just a limited practice on Friday, so don't expect him to be at 100%. That -- plus the return of Chase Edmonds -- knocks Conner into lower-end RB2 territory this week. The matchup, of course, adds plenty of upside.

Jets RB Michael Carter (ankle) has been activated from IR, putting him on track to play vs. the Dolphins on Sunday. HC Robert Saleh said Carter will have a "significant role" in that one. We're expecting 12-15 carries and 2-4 targets.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Lions. He only got in a limited practice on Friday, but HC Kliff Kingsbury said that he’s optimistic about both Conner and RB Chase Edmonds’ availability for Sunday’s game. Edmonds (ankle) remains on IR and will need to be activated by 4 pm ET on Saturday. We’ll keep you updated on Arizona’s backfield.

Cardinals RB James Conner (ankle) missed his 2nd straight practice on Thursday. His injury isn't believed to be serious, but there's certainly a chance that he doesn't play vs. the Lions this weekend. Check back tomorrow for another update.

Jets RB Michael Carter (ankle) has been designated to return from IR. HC Robert Saleh said earlier this week that he expected Carter to play vs. the Dolphins on Sunday, but we'll keep tabs on his progress over the next few days.

Cardinals RB James Conner is considered "day-to-day" with his ankle injury, HC Kliff Kingsbury said. It sounds like his MRI came back relatively clean. Conner still shouldn't be considered a lock to play vs. the Lions on Sunday, but we'll keep you updated on his status.

Cardinals RB James Conner will get an MRI on the ankle he injured on the 2nd-to-last play of Monday night's loss to the Rams, HC Kliff Kingsbury said. We'll pass along an update as soon as we get one. Kingsbury also admitted that he's played Conner too many snaps in Chase Edmonds' absence, so we can expect Conner's volume to be scaled back with Edmonds likely back for Week 15.

Jets HC Robert Saleh expects to get RB Michael Carter back for this weekend's game vs. the Dolphins. Carter has been out since suffering a high-ankle sprain back in Week 11. He'd emerged as New York's clear lead back before going down, averaging 13 carries and 6.2 targets across his last 6 healthy games. Carter should step back into a similar role, although players coming off high-ankle sprains are always a bit risky.

Chiefs slot CB Rashad Fenton (knee) is active or today's game against the Raiders. He came in questionable but will play in an upside matchup with Vegas WR Hunter Renfrow.

11:32am UTC 12/5/21

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Bears. It’ll be his first action since Week 8. Murray remained limited in practice all week and will be playing in less-than-ideal weather conditions today. WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is active but might be limited. Add it all up and Murray looks like a mid-to-low-end QB1 for Week 13. Check out exactly where he sits in the rankings.

Cardinals HC Kliff Kingsbury told NFL Network's Stacey Dales that QB Kyler Murray (ankle) and WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) will play vs. the Bears today. Kingsbury had previously called both guys game-time decisions, so they evidently checked out well today. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported this morning that Hopkins could be limited today, so he still carries more risk than usual in Week 13 fantasy lineups.
