Both players are needed as the Cardinals try to get set for the playoffs. Conner has TD upside and Moore is more of a desperation flex play.

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner missed Thursday's practice due to a heel injury.

Conner was seen doing warmups early on Thursday, so reports surfaced that he was indeed practicing. That was not the case. The team's official injury report lists him as DNP, which is more in line with head coach Kliff Kingsbury's comments that Conner is going to be a game-time decision for Week 17. If Conner is ultimately ruled out, Chase Edmonds will be a no-doubt RB1 option. Edmonds is currently our 30th running back for Week 17.

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner returned to practice on Thursday.

Conner did not do much work at practice on Wednesday, and according to head coach Kliff Kingsbury is set to be a game-time decision this weekend. With that said, logging what looks to be at least a limited practice on a Thursday bodes well for his chances of suiting up. However, the Cardinals will likely exercise caution with their lead back due to having already clinched a playoff berth. This is a situation to monitor, but fantasy managers will still want to have a contingency plan at the ready.

Cardinals HC Kliff Kingsbury told reporters Wednesday that RB James Conner (heel) and WR Rondale Moore (ankle) are expected to be game-day decisions Week 17.

Week 17's matchup is worse for Conner than Moore, but with the playoffs (and fantasy championships) in the balance, both are needed this week.

Labeled a game-time decision by head coach Kliff Kingsbury after missing practice all week, the starting back will miss tonight after expecting to play earlier today.

This will be a major boost to Chase Edmonds stock with the Colts missing two of their top defensive starters.

Labeled a game-time decision despite not practicing all week, Conner could see a reduced workload in a difficult matchup. Indianapolis has allowed the second-fewest rushing touchdowns this season.

Chase Edmonds who has worked through his own injuries recently will split work with Conner and both enter as more RB2/3 than RB1 given the matchup.

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner is listed as questionable for their Week 16 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Conner is dealing with a heel issue and says that his ankle feels fine. He expects to play on Saturday but noted that the decision will come down to pain management. Conner has been excellent in 2021 and is the RB5 on the season, thanks in large part due to his penchant for finding the end zone. He may be limited if active but still offers RB2 appeal due to his touchdown upside. The Cardinals veteran running back is currently our 20th ranked running back for Week 16.

The Cardinals didn’t hold a practice on Tuesday, but they did issue an injury report because they will be hosting the Colts on Christmas.

That report says that running back James Conner would not have practiced because of a heel injury.
