Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ankle) underwent season-ending surgery on Monday after suffering a significant right ankle injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game. Conner was carted off with his ankle immobilized, and head coach Jonathan Gannon confirmed he won't return this season. With Conner sidelined, the Cardinals will turn to second-year back Trey Benson, who has been highly efficient, averaging 6.0 yards per carry (second among RBs). Gannon praised Benson before the season, noting he viewed both Conner and Benson as capable starters. Benson now projects as the lead option in Arizona's backfield, while Emari Demercado is expected to mix in behind him.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin, personal) is active for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable after missing Friday's practice. The veteran ball-carrier has impressed when healthy this season, but after a short absence, he suddenly faces competition from standout rookie Kyle Monangai. With a wintry mix falling and a matchup against the Giants' 31st-ranked run defense, the Bears are expected to use a healthy dose of both Swift and Monangai out of the backfield on Sunday. Both can be low-end RB2 options in fantasy football.
