Darrel Williams News
The Arizona Cardinals placed running back Darrel Williams (hip) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday and claimed defensive lineman Trysten Hill after he was released by the Dallas Cowboys on Tuesday. Williams had just returned in the Week 8 loss to the Minnesota Vikings from a knee injury that had sidelined him for a few games. He will now be forced to miss at least the next four games. Williams was seen on crutches on Wednesday. The Cardinals are hoping James Conner (ribs) can return this weekend against the Seattle Seahawks, but if he can't, Eno Benjamin and Keaontay Ingram are in line to serve as the top two backs. Benjamin has been the better fantasy back with 36 carries for 151 yards and a touchdown while catching 11 of 15 targets for 72 yards in three starts with Conner sidelined.
Arizona Cardinals running back Darrel Williams (knee) and kicker Matt Prater (hip) are both active for the Week 8 contest against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Williams will return from a two-game absence and James Conner (ribs) remains out. However, Eno Benjamin has been solid as the team's lead back the last two weeks with both Williams and Conner sidelined, so the Cardinals could continue to give Benjamin the majority of the backfield touches as they ease Williams back into the fold. Williams will be a risky touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in deeper leagues now that he's back. Benjamin still has plenty of fantasy upside this week, but the return of Williams takes a little shine off of him. Prater will return for the first time since Week 4, but fantasy managers can probably find safer kicking options this week.
Arizona Cardinals running back Darrel Williams (knee) is considered a game-time decision for Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings. Williams has been limited in practice this week and could return to action on Sunday after missing the last two games. James Conner (ribs) will miss his third straight game, so Eno Benjamin, who has been the starter for the last two weeks, should at least half a share of the backfield duties this weekend against Minnesota. Williams could have his offensive snaps limited if he's active on Sunday, so Benjamin would probably still be the better fantasy play. In the last two games as the starter, Benjamin has had 27 carries for 129 yards and a touchdown while adding seven receptions on eight targets for an additional 49 yards.
