Jets RB Michael Carter is expected to miss 2-3 weeks with a "low-grade" high-ankle sprain, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. So the rookie figures to miss Week 12 vs. the Texans and Week 13 vs. the Eagles. We'll see if he can make it back for Week 14 vs. the Saints. Carter is worth stashing on fantasy benches for the stretch run. His absence leaves Ty Johnson and Tevin Coleman as New York's top 2 RBs. Carries could be split fairly evenly between them, but Johnson should dominate pass-catching work and is the superior fantasy play.

Jets RB Michael Carter injured his ankle in the 3rd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. He's officially questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: Carter has been downgraded to out.

Cardinals S Budda Baker (heel) is active for today's game against the Seahawks. He entered the day questionable, but HC Kliff Kingsbury said he expected the safety to play.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. He’ll get a Week 12 bye and figures to be back for Week 13’s meeting with the Bears. QB Colt McCoy (pectoral) is active and gets his 3rd straight start today.

Both ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hear that Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) is unlikely to play vs. the Seahawks today. Schefter reports that a final decision on Murray's status won't be made until pregame warmups but that "signs point" to QB Colt McCoy getting another start. Rapoport says there's a "chance" Murray is able to play -- but a "better chance" that it's McCoy. We won't get Arizona's inactives until 3 pm ET, so Murray belongs on fantasy benches unless we get a more optimistic report on his status. McCoy played well in his 1st start vs. the 49ers 2 weeks ago but bombed last week vs. the Panthers. He's a low-end QB2 and a clear downgrade for Arizona's offense.

3:10pm EST 11/20/21

Saints RB Tony Jones (ankle) has been activated from IR. He figures to serve as the #2 RB behind Mark Ingram vs. the Eagles on Sunday. Jones isn't a fantasy option; Ingram remains a solid RB2 play.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Seahawks. He got in 3 limited practices this week. HC Kliff Kingsbury said Friday that Murray will be a game-time decision. It’s a 4:25 pm ET kickoff, but we should get an update on Murray on Sunday morning. QB Colt McCoy (pectoral) is also listed as questionable. But he got in a full practice on Friday and should be available if Murray can't go.

Cardinals S Budda Baker (heel) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. HC Kliff Kingsbury said Friday, though, that Baker will play, according to the team website. We'll confirm his status Sunday afternoon.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) remained limited in Thursday's practice. His availability for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks is still up in the air. Check back tomorrow for another update.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He was limited last Friday before missing the Panthers game. HC Kliff Kingsbury has remained non-committal on Murray's status for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. Check back tomorrow for another update.

Cardinals HC Kliff Kingsbury said Monday that "it's going to be close" for QB Kyler Murray (ankle) to be ready for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. Murray returned to a limited practice on Friday but didn't seem close to playing vs. the Panthers. The Cardinals have a Week 12 bye, so they could get Murray 2 more weeks of rest if they hold him out this weekend. But the ugly loss last week might push the team to get Murray back out there. We'll keep you updated on his progress throughout this week.

Cardinals QB Colt McCoy suffered a chest injury in the 2nd half of Sunday's game vs. Carolina and is officially questionable to return. QB Chris Streveler is in for Arizona. We'll update McCoy's status when we know more.

Cardinals S Budda Baker (knee) is active for today's game against Panthers. DL Jordan Phillips (groin) is also active but a low-level IDP option.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Panthers. He returned to a limited practice on Friday, so we’re tentatively expecting him back for Week 11’s game in Seattle. It’s worth noting, though, that the Cardinals have a Week 12 bye, so they could opt to hold Murray out until Week 13. QB Colt McCoy gets another start today after throwing for 249 yards and a score in last week’s win over the 49ers.

The Cardinals are "pessimistic" that QB Kyler Murray (ankle) will be able to play vs. the Panthers on Sunday, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Murray wants to take it up to game-time and AZ will give him a chance. But it’s likely that Colt McCoy starts," Rapoport adds. We'll look for further updates on the situation Sunday morning, but fantasy owners can't be counting on Murray at this point.

Cardinals S Budda Baker (concussion, knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers. Baker returned to practice Friday after missing the previous 2 days. HC Kliff Kingsbury said the team expects Baker to play. We'll confirm his status Sunday afternoon.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers. He got in a limited practice on Friday, his first since spraining that ankle back in Week 8. HC Kliff Kingsbury said Friday that Murray will be a game-time decision. That could put fantasy owners in a tough spot because Cardinals-Panthers doesn't kick off until 4:05 pm ET on Sunday. We'll look for an update on Murray's status that morning.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) missed practice again on Thursday. He said Wednesday that his sprained ankle is improving, but he still looks extremely iffy for this weekend's game vs. Carolina. Check back tomorrow for another update on Murray's status.

Cardinals WR A.J. Green has been activated from the COVID list. He'll return for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. But his fantasy value hinges on the status of teammates Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins and Rondale Moore.

Cardinals S Budda Baker missed Wednesday practice with a concussion and a knee injury. We'll see how he does this week, leading up to Sunday's meeting with the Panthers.
