James Conner (heel) practicing for Cardinals in Week 18
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (heel) is practicing for Week 18 against the Seattle Seahawks.
What It Means:
Conner is on track to return for Sunday's game after he missed the last two contests. Chase Edmonds (ribs, toe) has started Week 18 with back-to-back missed practices, so Conner could be looking at a three-down role versus the Seahawks. Conner totaled 99 yards and a touchdown on 26 touches against Seattle in Week 11.
numberFire's models currently project Conner for 13.7 touches if the Cardinals have both backs active. The Seahawks are allowing the second-most FanDuel points per game to the running back position this season, but according to numberFire's adjusted metrics, they have the fifth-best adjusted run defense in the NFL.
