Who Should I Start? James Conner or Ray Davis

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.

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis hauled in two receptions, including a touchdown against the Falcons in Week 6. Despite his season-high production, Davis remains strictly a handcuff for James Cook, as he has seen less than three touches in every game outside of the team's Week 2 blowout of the Jets. Davis accounts for just 7% of the team's rushing attempts this season, and has been targeted just four times in the passing game. Expect to see a hard-fought matchup with a stingy Panthers defense that will likely keep the Bills starters on the field throughout the game, making Davis nothing more than a handcuff for Cook.
