Is James Conner Worth Stashing in Deeper Leagues?

Thursday, September 10, 12:24 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (foot) enters the 2026 season on Injured Reserve, meaning he will miss at least the first four games of the year. The 31-year-old is still working his way back from the devastating foot injury that ended his 2025 season in Week 3. The running back room in Arizona looks much different now than it did when Conner was last healthy, as the team added veteran Tyler Allgeier and rookie phenom Jeremiyah Love (ankle) over the offseason. Even once Conner gets healthy, there's no guarantee that he will see fantasy-relevant playing time. However, the veteran running back remained a productive player in his last full season, recording over 1,500 yards from scrimmage and nine touchdowns across 16 games in 2024. In deeper league formats, Conner could be worth stashing in a bench or IR spot in case he steps into a regular role upon his return.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Works Out With Dolphins

Tuesday, July 28, 4:46 PM

Former Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire worked out with the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday, according to NFL.com. Edwards-Helaire was selected with the final pick of the first round by the Chiefs in 2020 from LSU, and he impressed with 803 rushing yards and four touchdowns in 13 starts as a rookie. However, the 27-year-old has never been able to recapture that form. After a short two-game stint with the New Orleans Saints in 2024, CEH returned to KC last season, only to carry the ball seven times for 13 yards and catch two passes for nine yards. He has not seen 100 carries in a season since his second year in the league with the Chiefs, and if he were to sign in Miami, he'd merely be fighting for a spot on the active 53-man roster behind starter De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright, and Ollie Gordon II. Edwards-Helaire is completely off the fantasy radar for the 2026 season, even in deep dynasty/keeper leagues.
