James Conner Week 14 Outlook - Rams at Cardinals

By Pat Fitzmaurice (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 9th 2021, 6:10am EST

Chase Edmonds is due back from a high-ankle sprain this week. In Arizona's first eight games, Edmonds played 56% of the offensive snaps, Conner 42%. It seems fair to wonder if the previous division of labor still applies, or if Conner has earned a majority share of snaps. In the four games Edmonds has missed - we'll include Week 9, when Edmonds got hurt on his first snap - Conner has had 72-272-4 rushing and 15-175-2 receiving. As good as Conner has looked in the passing game, perhaps obvious passing downs will no longer belong exclusively to Edmonds. Regard Conner as a high-end RB2 this week.
