ESPN's John Weinfuss is reporting that Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians believes that Robert Nkemdiche (ankle) could return from a high-ankle sprain "in 10 days." The rookie defensive lineman shed his walking boot and has shown noticeable "improvement" in his mobility. (ESPN)
Fantasy Impact:
The Arizona Cardinals made tremendous strides this offseason to improve their defensive front seven as they added Nkemdiche and Chandler Jones to their already swarming unit. Arizona's D/ST finished the 2015 season ranked third in fantasy points scored with 182 and averaged 11.4 FPPG over a 16 game span. In 2016, their D/ST should be considered a solid selection in the upcoming draft who could once again finish in the top five in scoring.
