James Conner News
Monday, August 24, 5:37 PM
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (foot) did not participate in Monday's practice. Conner is recovering from a dislocated ankle/foot that required season-ending surgery last season. The veteran running back has yet to take part in 11-on-11 drills at training camp, though he has been seen in individual drills throughout camp. With the team signing former Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier and drafting Jeremiyah Love with the fourth-overall pick, Conner is likely to be in a reserve role during the 2026 season. If Love (ankle) misses time early in the season due to his high-ankle sprain, Conner could see action if he's healthy and ready to go against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Isaiah Davis News
Sunday, August 16, 6:00 PM
New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis (knee) continues to be a massive question mark, and he missed the team's preseason opener on Friday due to a knee injury. While it's tough to knock Davis' fantasy stock for a relatively minor injury, we can't ignore the fact that his absence might have hurt his standing in the running back room, especially since teammate Braelon Allen was active on Friday and broke off a 31-yard touchdown run. Allen might have an early leg up on the competition to be the Jets' No. 2 running back behind Breece Hall, leaving Davis in an unfavorable third-string role. If that's the case, he'll have trouble carving out any sort of fantasy value as long as Hall and Allen are healthy. With that being said, a lot can change between now and Week 1 of the regular season, so dynasty managers should keep Davis on the back end of their rosters if they have the space. He's an unappealing option in redraft leagues, though.
