12 months agoArizona Cardinals running back
James Conner (knee) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice. Conner appears to be trending in the right direction to come off the injured reserve ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. This is now back-to-back limited practice sessions for Conner as he continues to rehab his knee. Fellow back
Emari Demercado (toe) continues missing practice, so getting Conner back would be huge for this offense. He'd immediately move into RB2 value if he's available for this game. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Friday for another update on his status.

12 months agoArizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver
Michael Wilson (shoulder) remains on the Week 10 injury report due to a shoulder injury and was limited in practice on Wednesday. Wilson missed practice all of last week and didn't play in the Week 9 shutout loss to the Cleveland Browns. The fact that he's back at practice early in the week, though, means he should have a shot to return to game action this Sunday in Week 10 versus the Atlanta Falcons. The 23-year-old has shown flashes in his first NFL season with 25 receptions for 401 yards and two touchdowns in his first eight games, and with quarterback
Kyler Murray (knee) set to make his 2023 debut this weekend, Wilson's rest-of-season fantasy value is on the rise with a much more capable QB running the offense.
Rondale Moore, who already has very little appeal, will suffer if Wilson returns to action in Week 10.

12 months agoArizona Cardinals rookie running back
Emari Demercado (toe) remains out of practice on Wednesday. Demercado suffered a toe injury in Week 8 and was inactive for the Week 9 loss to the Cleveland Browns. The 24-year-old is off to a bad start early in the week and will need to get back on the practice field in the next couple of days to have a chance to play this Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. In other Cardinals RB news,
James Conner (knee) has been designated to return from Injured Reserve and was limited in practice Wednesday. The veteran is eligible to return from IR after already missing four games and seems primed to play this weekend, which would render Demercado essentially useless for fantasy purposes if he ends up being able to play. When healthy, Conner should revert to being Arizona's bell-cow back.

Kyler Murray (knee) was at odds with former head coach Kliff Kingsbury last year before he suffered a torn ACL in Week 14, and there were also reports that surfaced that the front office wasn't happy with his lack of preparation before games. However, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Murray has been quite different this year and is much more engaged while trying to learn the ins and outs of new head coach Jonathan Gannon's offense. The 26-year-old's return to practice in recent weeks has also been a positive for the team, and now he's on the cusp of making his 2023 debut in Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday. The Cardinals could be getting lead running back
James Conner (knee) back from Injured Reserve as well. Murray might be rusty initially and shouldn't be considered a must-start QB1 in Week 10, but he surely will bring much more upside to this offense moving forward.

12 months agoThe Arizona Cardinals officially opened running back
James Conner's (knee) 21-day practice window on Wednesday for him to activated from Injured Reserve. Things had been trending this way, and now it's official that Conner is back at practice and potentially on track to return in Week 10 to face the Atlanta Falcons after missing the required four games. Whether the 28-year-old is actually active this weekend will come down to how he looks in practice this week, but fantasy managers could be getting him back very soon. When healthy, Conner will be Arizona's unquestioned lead back. The team is also getting quarterback
Kyler Murray (knee) back for the first time in 2023 in Week 10, so their offense will have considerably more upside moving forward. UPDATE: Conner was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

Kyler Murray (knee) will see his first game action on Sunday for the first time since suffering a torn ACL in Week 14 of last season. The 26-year-old returns to action roughly 11 months after the major injury, and offensive coordinator Drew Petzing is suggesting that he'll have no restrictions as a runner. "He's healthy, he's ready to go and we will put him in a position to be successful," Petzing said. Petzing acknowledged that there is a risk with him getting hit and tackled, but it's part of Murray's skill set. While expectations should be tempered for Murray, who could be rusty, he has immediate QB1 upside if he's at full strength. The former No. 1 overall pick has over 2,000 rushing yards and 23 rushing touchdowns since entering the league in 2019.

12 months agoThe Arizona Cardinals officially activated quarterback
Kyler Murray (knee) from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Tuesday and added him to the active 53-man roster. Murray is finally set to make his 2023 debut in Week 10 this Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons after tearing his right ACL on Dec. 12 of last year. The 26-year-old has been practicing in full and will be Arizona's starter under center this weekend, taking over for rookie
Clayton Tune, who predictably fell flat in his first career NFL start in Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns. Murray will give the entire Cardinals offense more upside going forward, but fantasy managers may want to temper expectations for him in the QB1 tier right away in Week 10.

12 months agoThe Arizona Cardinals are hoping to open the 21-day practice window for running back
James Conner (knee) this week. Conner is on Injured Reserve and has missed the last four games, but he will be eligible to return in Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons. If he returns to practice and looks good this week, he could be officially activated from IR later this week/weekend and play on Sunday against the Falcons. Head coach Jonathan Gannon said last week that Conner is "ready to go" and "excited to get back," so it sounds like he's trending in the right direction to play this weekend. Rookie
Emari Demercado (toe) was inactive for the Week 9 shutout loss to the Cleveland Browns, leaving
Keaontay Ingram as Arizona's lead back. Conner could be eased in if he plays in Week 10, but when healthy, the 28-year-old will return to bell-cow duties for the Cards.

12 months agoMinnesota Vikings quarterback
Joshua Dobbs is expected to start against the New Orleans Saints in Week 10. Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said they'll practice this week as though Dobbs is the starter. This comes after Dobbs came off the bench and led the Vikings to a comeback victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 9, despite being traded to Minnesota just five days earlier. Dobbs completed 20 of his 30 passing attempts for 158 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed seven times for 66 yards and a score. The 28-year-old has fantasy upside due to his rushing prowess, and his ceiling could be raised when
Justin Jefferson (hamstring) returns. Jefferson is eligible to come off the Injured Reserve list in Week 10.

12 months agoArizona Cardinals tight end
Trey McBride caught three of five targets for 22 yards in the Cardinals' 27-0 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 9. McBride and the rest of the Cardinals couldn't get anything going against a stingy Browns defense and produced a dud of a game. It was clear rookie quarterback
Clayton Tune's struggles impacted McBride's production throughout the day. On a semi-positive note, McBride's catch and yardage totals ended up second on the team. With this loss now in the rearview mirror, McBride could re-emerge in Week 10 if quarterback
Kyler Murray (knee) were to make his season debut.

12 months agoArizona Cardinals wideout
Marquise Brown caught 4-of-8 targets for 24 yards in the team's 27-0 loss to the Cleveland Browns. The team struggled as a whole on Sunday moving the ball down the field. Even though Brown led the team in receptions, receiving yards, and targets, it was a challenging day working with frequently overwhelmed rookie quarterback
Clayton Tune. With
Kyler Murray (knee) on the mend and scheduled to return in Week 10, better days should be ahead for the alpha WR in the Arizona aerial attack. Fantasy managers can expect Hollywood to return to form once Murray makes his season debut.
--Kevin Campbell - RotoBallerSource: ESPN.COM
12 months agoArizona Cardinals running back
Keaontay Ingram rushed for eight yards on nine attempts in the Cardinals' 27-0 loss to the Cleveland Browns. The Browns stifled the Arizona run game all day, which impacted the ability of rookie quarterback
Clayton Tune to get anything going in the passing game. The combination of a stingy Cleveland defense and stacked fronts made it a day to forget for Ingram before the game script necessitated switching to the aerial attack. With
James Conner (knee) eligible to return as early as Week 10, Ingram may be relegated back to a complimentary role in the Arizona backfield sooner rather than later.

12 months agoArizona Cardinals rookie quarterback
Clayton Tune completed 11 of 20 passes for 58 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions in the Cardinals' 27-0 loss to the Cleveland Browns. He also rushed five times for 28 yards and lost a fumble. The first-year signal caller had a tough assignment in his initial NFL start, going up against one of the top defenses in the league. The results were about what was to be expected, as Tune looked out of sorts and uncomfortable all day. This will likely be a one-and-done scenario for the rookie unless the Cardinals give
Kyler Murray (knee) one more week to get healthy. Moving forward, Tune should be avoided in all formats.

12 months agoMinnesota Vikings quarterback
Joshua Dobbs completed 20 of 30 passes for 158 yards and two touchdowns while adding 66 yards and a score on the ground in the team's Week 9 victory over the Falcons. Dobbs came into the game in relief of
Jaren Hall (concussion) after the rookie completed five of his first six passes for 78 yards. Dobbs figures to be the starting quarterback for the remainder of the season after being brought in at the NFL trade deadline, so fantasy managers need to keep him on their radar going forward in superflex leagues. He looks like a solid QB2 option due to his rushing upside, and his ceiling could be even higher once All-Pro wide receiver
Justin Jefferson (hamstring) is back in the Minnesota lineup.
