Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner did not play in their preseason opener on Friday night.
Fantasy Impact: Conner is expected to be the team’s starter in the backfield after a 782-yard season in 2022. The broadcast mentioned that Conner is healthy, so his scratch is likely a precautionary measure to keep him ready for the regular season. He has cleared his current PPR average draft position of RB22 each of his last two seasons, but in what should be a low-scoring offense, it’s hard to see strong upside for Conner in 2023.
