Who Should I Start? James Conner or Wan'Dale Robinson

According to the team, the Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (knee) was placed on injured reserve, which will keep him sidelined for the remainder of the 2024 season. In a corresponding move, Michael Carter was promoted to the active roster. Conner suffered a knee injury during their Week 16 loss to the Carolina Panthers and was listed as questionable leading up to their Week 17 tilt against the Rams. Conner was able to suit up in this contest but exited the game after just 12 offensive snaps. In this game, Conner ran the ball just four times for four yards and brought in two receptions for four yards. Rookie Trey Benson (ankle) is also on injured reserve, which will leave DeeJay Dallas and now Michael Carter as the lone backs for their final game. Carter saw the most work when Conner exited both games, which suggests he will be the lead option on Sunday afternoon.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson caught a game-high 10 passes for 43 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. Although the wideout didn't find the end zone, he still had a quality end to the 2024-25 campaign. He'll finish the season by posting career-highs in receptions (93), yards (699), and touchdowns (three). While Robinson has a way to go before becoming a trustworthy fantasy option, his value could increase heading into next season if the Giants secure a quality quarterback moving ahead.
