Michael Carter Week 14 Outlook - Rams at Cardinals

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sat, Dec 6th 2025, 3:35am EST

It's looking unlikely that we will see Trey Benson again this season. He's out this week, and so is Emari Demercado. The Cardinals will lean on the tandem of Zonovan Knight and Michael Carter again this week. Carter is the passing-down back. Since Week 12, he has averaged nine touches and 61 total yards with a 53.5% snap rate, only ten of 31 running back carries, a 42.3% route share, and an 8.9% target share. Carter will likely lead the backfield in snaps again this week as the Cardinals will likely be trailing for most of this game. The Rams have allowed the 12th-highest yards per reception and the 14th-most receiving touchdowns per game (tied) to running backs. Carter is a viable flex this week in PPR formats.
