Fantasy Reaction: Arizona Cardinals Sign RB James Conner

The Arizona Cardinals added a big runner to its backfield, signing James Conner to a one-year deal. Conner, 25, figures to see the early-down and goal-line work in a backfield committee with incumbent veteran Chase Edmonds. That sort of scenario is not what you would call ideal for either runner in the world of fantasy football.

Conner was once considered a top fantasy back in 2018 when he helped lead many fans to a postseason berth in Le'Veon Bell's absence. He produced over 1,400 scrimmage yards, 13 touchdowns and ranked sixth in fantasy points among runners despite missing three games.
