Who Should I Start? Michael Carter or Rasheen Ali

Monday, November 3, 6:09 PM

The Arizona Cardinals announced on Monday that they elevated running back Michael Cater to the active 53-man roster from their practice squad for the Week 9 game against the Dallas Cowboys. The Cardinals cut Carter from the active roster early last week as a procedural move before quickly adding him back to their practice squad. The Cardinals are expected to "start" Bam Knight on Monday against Dallas, but head coach Jonathan Gannon said the team is going to ride the hot hand in the backfield after that. Emari Demercado is back from an ankle injury that knocked him out before the team's Week 8 bye, but the majority of backfield looks on Monday night should go to Knight and Carter. The 26-year-old will have a good matchup against the Cowboys, but he's averaging only 2.8 yards per carry in four games in 2025 and won't be a recommended DFS option.

The Baltimore Ravens have ruled out running back Rasheen Ali (concussion) from returning to Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. A key special teamer for the Ravens will be out of the picture for at least the rest of this week. Additionally, Baltimore did not activate running back Keaton Mitchell ahead of the game, so the club has only its top two running backs, Derrick Henry and Justice Hill, available for the remainder of Sunday.
