Gardner Minshew

ARI Quarterback #15

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

ESPN’s Adam Schefter named Gardner Minshew and Mac Jones as potential trade candidates for the Giants.

Jaxson Dart will miss the rest of the regular season, though there’s hope he could return for a postseason run. Schefter noted that Minshew played under Giants OC Matt Nagy in Kansas City, giving him some familiarity with the team’s scheme. He also mentioned that it will not be cheap to pry Jones away from the 49ers. Jimmy Garoppolo is out there as well. He is a free agent and is reportedly still interested in playing, “in the right situation.” For now, the Giants are going to roll with Jameis Winston. Jake Haener will back him up. They will likely add someone as an extra backup option, but Winston is an interesting QB2 for fantasy purposes until they make a bigger addition.
Jacoby Brissett

ARI Quarterback #7

Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett (hip) was a full practice participant on Wednesday.

Brissett seemingly dealt with an injury in the Cardinals’ Week 2 loss against the Seahawks, but played through it. He opens the week listed with a hip injury but was a full practice participant. Though Brissett seems to have a hip issue ailing him, it does not seem like it will keep him from playing. The veteran remains in the low-end QB2 conversation for Week 3 against the 49ers.
Will Johnson

ARI Cornerback #2

Cardinals placed CB Will Johnson (neck) on injured reserve

Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur said on Monday that Johnson (neck) could miss the remainder of the season. ESPN’s Adam Schefter broke the news today about Johnson being placed on injured reserve, though he did not specify whether Johnson’s season is for sure over. Cardinals slot CB Garrett Williams (Achilles) and perimeter CB2 Max Melton (toe) are also dealing with injuries.
Marvin Harrison

ARI Wide Receiver #18

The Arizona Republic’s Theo Mackie reports Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur “met [the] idea” of manufacturing touches for Marvin Harrison “with skepticism.”

“I know it’s like, ‘Well, just get some easy completions to get going,’” LaFleur told Mackie. “And that’s fine. You also have Trey McBride, who’s one of the best underneath guys in the world. And there’s only about 60, 65 plays a game. And you’ve gotta run the ball. And you’ve got Kendrick, who works underneath pretty well too. So everyone’s kind of got their role.” In other words; don’t look for LaFleur to bail your Harrison fantasy pick out. If Harrison does get cooking this year it’ll be in the normal flow of their offense. So far that has yielded just four targets in two games.
Will Johnson

ARI Cornerback #2

Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur said CB Will Johnson (neck) could miss the remainder of the season.

This comes a day after LaFleur said he did not believe Johnson suffered a serious injury in Sunday’s loss to the Seahawks. The loss of Johnson would be another blow to a secondary that is already short Garrett Williams (Achilles) and also lost Max Melton (toe) in Week 2. Johnson leads all Cardinals DBs with 111 snaps through the first two weeks, and he appeared on 722 snaps last season. We’ll likely get a clearer timeline for Johnson’s absence in the coming days.
Marvin Harrison

ARI Wide Receiver #18

Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur said he “wouldn’t look into too much” about Marvin Harrison Jr.'s usage in Week 2 because “we didn’t throw the ball for crap anyway.”

“Schematically, it wasn’t good,” LaFleur added, presumably while giving himself a wedgie. Harrison only saw one official target — another was wiped away by penalty — and he played just 74 percent of the snaps. The real problem here is that when the Cardinals ran well on offense in Week 1, Harrison had just one catch for 33 yards on three targets. He’s going to be hard to trust in any given week until we see it “click” in some way with LaFleur’s offense.
Will Johnson

ARI Cornerback #2

Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur said he does not think CB Will Johnson (neck) and CB Max Melton (toe) suffered serious injuries.

The Cardinals are already without slot CB Garrett Williams, who has not yet returned from last season’s Achilles tendon rupture. Johnson and Melton start on the perimeter. Losing one or both could be consequential against the 49ers next week.
Tyler Allgeier

ARI Running Back #22

Tyler Allgeier rushed five times for 10 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 2 loss to the Seahawks, adding two receptions for nine yards.

Allgeier failed to generate more than five yards on a touch all night. Rookie RB Jeremiyah Love fared slightly better, but the Seahawks’ defense simply bottled up the Cardinals’ backfield. Allgeier is a capable back but needs help from his offensive environment to generate usable fantasy stat lines. He can only be viewed as a touchdown-dependent FLEX against the 49ers next week, although he remains a worthwhile bench stash.
Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Jeremiyah Love rushed nine times for 29 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 2 loss to the Seahawks, adding three receptions for 16 yards.

On Friday, Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur said Love and RB Tyler Allgeier are going to rotate this season. Ultimately, they did in Week 2, but Love was in for the first series, running the ball on three of the Cardinals’ first six plays. The rookie running back looks spry and explosive, yet there was simply no room to run against the Seahawks’ elite defense. Although Love is still splitting snaps with RB Tyler Allgeier, Love out-touched him 12-7 this week. Love can be viewed as a low-end RB2/FLEX next week against the 49ers.
Kendrick Bourne

ARI Wide Receiver #17

Kendrick Bourne caught 2-of-3 targets for 11 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 2 loss to the Seahawks.

Bourne earned his first target on the Cardinals’ fourth drive. The throw was a tad late, and Bourne’s hesitated while running his route, so the pass glanced off his hands in the flats. He caught the next two, but barely cleared double-digit yardage. Bourne does not need to be rostered in 12-team leagues.
