Team news: Tennessee Titans

Cardinals RB Bam Knight, who was carted off Sunday with an ankle injury, suffered what is being described as “a bad sprain.”

Schefter went on to say that nothing is broken, which is good news, but Knight is unlikely to play in Week 16. Knight will undergo an MRI today. With Knight out, it was Carter who got 14 carries and also added four catches for 38 yards in passing game. Demercado could factor in with Knight out, too, but he only had three touches this past week. Kiner had two rushes for 11 yards. The Cards have a home game against the Falcons in the later window on Sunday.

Cardinals are not activating RB Trey Benson; his season is over.

It'll be a one-two punch of Knight + Carter over the last month of the season, but sadly, that hasn't been particularly great for fantasy. Knight is the more reliable option of the two for Week 15, but the team is leaning heavily into the passing game, and the Texans rank 4th in RB aFPA, making him an RB3 with limited upside.

RB Trey Benson won’t be activated yet. Gannon acknowledged he doesn’t know if Benson will return this season.

Lots of negative news about the Cardinals' offense on this fine Friday, as Benson will join Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. in street clothes.

Knight should once again get the majority of the rushing-down work, albeit against a Rams defense that ranks fifth in RB aFPA. Consider him in the RB3 range for Week 14.

Cardinals ruled out RB Trey Benson, G Will Hernandez and DT Walter Nolen for Sunday’s game in Tampa.

Knight has been taking more of the work as of late, but the snap rates are still almost 50/50, and the team has been leaning heavily on the passing game under Jacoby Brissett. Other options are recommended, but if you need to play either Carter or Knight, consider them RB4s.

Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado suffered a high ankle sprain and is unlikely to play Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday.

Demercado left in the second quarter of Arizona's 41-22 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday after rushing for 8 yards on five attempts and catching two passes for 12 yards. Bam Knight also had five carries for the Cardinals, rushing for 24 yards and a touchdown.

The story said it's possible Benson is activated from the IR. If not, Knight and Carter would likely split the workload with Carter seeing passing down action. Even if Benson is back, he may not gather a full workload his first week back, but would probably be the back to own in fantasy going forward.

Titans interim head coach Mike McCoy told reporters after Sunday’s loss to the Texans that WR Calvin Ridley suffered a broken fibula and will miss the rest of the season.

Very unfortunate for Ridley, who just returned from a hamstring injury from Week 6. He left early in the game after seeing just one target. It’s been a long season for the Titans. They’ll move forward with rookies Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike helping lead the charge.

Titans WR Calvin Ridley is questionable to return to Sunday’s game against the Texans after being carted off the field with an ankle injury.

This was Ridley’s first game back since Week 6, but unfortunately the return was short lived. He left in the first quarter. It’s back to Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike leading the charge.

No Xavier Woods, Calvin Ridley, Jeffery Simmons, Blake Hance, Dan Moore Jr for the Titans at practice today per Mike McCoy.

Not a good sign for Ridley's Week 9 availability, but it's not out of the question that he's playing for another team at this point next week. Dike and Ayomanor both make for solid WR4-types if Ridley is unable to suit up.

Not practicing today for Giants: Jermaine Eluemunor (pec), Jalin Hyatt (will be back tomorrow), Daniel Bellinger, Chauncey Golston (neck), Cor’Dale Flott (concussion), Art Green

Paulson Adebo and Jevon Holland will do “some stuff,” but not clear what that means

Related Players: Theo Johnson

This is shaping up as a decent week to stream Theo Johnson if your waiver wire is bare. It's unlikely Chris Manhertz contributes much as a pass-catcher in the event Bellinger is sidelined.

The Cardinals released veteran RB Michael Carter, per the wire.

Carter wasn't impressive despite getting the starting nod a couple of weeks. The Cards will go with Knight as their top back and Demercado, at least for now, looks to slide into the RB2 role. Benson will miss at least one more week on IR, but has a chance to come back for Week 10.
