Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins finished with four catches for 87 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's loss to the Chargers. With Marquise Brown (ankle) active, Hopkins was targeted only six times, his second-lowest mark of the season. However, the 30-year-old has had a fantastic 2022-23 campaign, finding the end zone in three of his six appearances. While Brown may continue to cut into Hopkins' production, there should be room for both men to make some noise for fantasy managers moving ahead.
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner logged a season-high 25 carries in Week 12 against the L.A. Chargers to finish with 120 yards. He also had three catches for 20 yards and a touchdown. The veteran has been on a roll, amassing four touchdowns in the last three games. With DeAndre Hopkins and Marquise Brown back in the lineup and on the field together moving ahead, Conner may get some breathing room to continue producing for fantasy managers in Week 14 versus New England, after the team's bye.
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray finished with 191 yards and two touchdowns (one interception) off 18-for-29 passing during the loss to the Chargers. He also had seven carries for 56 yards and a touchdown. Murray got Marquise Brown (ankle) back after a lengthy layoff, so the signal-caller finally had his top wideouts on the field. However, it didn't matter in the end, as L.A. put together a late scoring drive and a two-point conversion to seal the win. Nevertheless, the 25-year-old has played much better recently than he did at the start of the season, and with Brown and DeAndre Hopkins active, things look promising in Week 14 against the Patriots, after the Cardinals' bye.
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch (thumb) and quarterback Trace McSorley (illness) are inactive for Week 12 versus the Los Angeles Chargers. Both players had been listed as questionable. Dortch stood out after Rondale Moore (groin) exited last Monday's game early, totaling nine catches for 103 yards. Although Dortch and Moore will miss this Sunday's clash, Arizona should still feel good about its wide receiver corps, which is headlined by DeAndre Hopkins, Marquise Brown, and A.J. Green. Meanwhile, the Cardinals can survive without McSorley since both Kyler Murray (hamstring) and Colt McCoy (elbow) are active this week.
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch (thumb) isn't expected to suit up versus the Los Angeles Chargers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 24-year-old was entering Week 12, coming off a potent performance against the 49ers in Mexico City, where he finished with nine catches for 103 yards. However, fantasy managers had an idea Dortch wouldn't be out there against L.A., especially since the Cardinals elevated Pharoh Cooper and Andre Baccellia to the active roster. Fortunately, Marquise Brown (ankle) will make his long awaited return after a lengthy layoff, which is welcome news considering Rondale Moore (groin) also won't play. That said, Brown may be on a snap count, so DeAndre Hopkins should remain the top option for Kyler Murray on Sunday.
