Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver
Marvin Harrison Jr. should get WR2 consideration in Week 14 when the Cardinals host the Seattle Seahawks. Harrison Jr. had a solid game last week, scoring the Cardinals' lone touchdown. He also saw his largest target share of the season, receiving 12 targets. With the Cardinals in pursuit of winning the NFC West division, it is expected that they will empty the playbook and come out swinging in this matchup. Taking more shots down the field has been something the Cardinals have needed to incorporate into this offense, and Harrison Jr. is the best option to receive those downfield shots. With Harrison Jr.'s usage increasing, managers should feel much more comfortable with him in the lineup.

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back
Trey Benson should not be considered for starting lineups in fantasy in Week 14. The Cardinals will have a home divisional matchup with the Seattle Seahawks in what will be a pivotal game for the NFC West. Benson saw an uptick in usage before the Week 11 bye, but post-bye week, that trend has not continued. Benson has had just seven total carries over the last two weeks. With Benson's usage not at a reliable level, he remains a handcuff for
James Conner but is not a fantasy starter.

Arizona Cardinals running back
James Conner should be viewed as a high-end RB2 in Week 14 in the Cardinals' divisional battle with the Seattle Seahawks. Conner struggled on the ground in the previous matchup with the Seahawks, recording his season-low of eight rushing yards; however, he remained productive, catching five passes for 41 yards in that game. Conner is the workhorse of this Cardinals offense, and his usage rate is among the highest of all running backs in the NFL. With the Cardinals needing to win this game to position themselves well for a playoff spot, we can expect them to rely on Conner heavily. Fantasy managers should insert Conner into their starting lineups if he isn't already there in Week 14.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Kyler Murray should be considered a high-end quarterback play in Week 14 when the Cardinals host the Seattle Seahawks. This matchup will be the season's biggest game for the Cardinals as they position themselves to try to reach the playoffs. With the stakes of this game as high as they get for a regular-season matchup, we can expect the Cardinals' offense to completely empty the playbook, which would include utilizing Murray's rushing ability. Murray has struggled in his last two games, especially in their previous matchup against the Seahawks, making him due for a huge bounce-back. The offense made strides a week ago but settled for too many field goals to get the win. With the expected increase in rushing and a sense of urgency from the Cardinals, fantasy managers should trust Murray in the starting lineup.

Arizona Cardinals receiver
Michael Wilson had another quietly productive day in the Week 13 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Wilson's official stat line was five receptions for 55 yards. As teams devote all their resources to stopping tight end
Trey McBride, rookie receiver
Marvin Harrison Jr., and running back
James Conner, Wilson has benefited from single coverage and has proven he's capable of making big plays. If not already, Wilson should be rostered in all leagues given the Cardinals' upcoming schedule. Wilson is a potential streaming option as a flex in deeper leagues moving forward.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Marvin Harrison Jr. found his way to the end zone for the seventh time this season in the Week 13 loss against the Vikings. Harrison Jr.'s final stat line was five receptions for 60 yards and a touchdown. Harrison Jr. was responsible for the Cardinals' only touchdown, as the offense is still working to shake off the cobwebs from their week of rest two weeks ago. Harrison Jr. has had an impressive rookie season, but one thing he has already proven is that he has elite ability at finding the end zone. His seven touchdowns put him on par with the type of production Cardinals legend Larry Fitzgerald had in his first season with the team, which should be a positive sign for fantasy managers heading into the playoff stretch. Harrison Jr. is likely a WR2 play in Week 14 when the Cardinals travel back home to take on the Seattle Seahawks.

Arizona Cardinals tight end
Trey McBride continued his historic campaign in the Week 13 loss against the Minnesota Vikings. Ten or more catches have become the norm for McBride, as he tallied 12 receptions for 96 yards on the road in Minnesota. McBride has emerged as one of the premier safety blankets in the NFL and a target that
Kyler Murray knows he can rely on at any moment. The only concern fantasy managers have had with McBride is his lack of touchdown production; however, his high-volume target share overshadows the lack of touchdowns. McBride is a no-brainer start every single week in fantasy and should remain in the lineup when the Cardinals take on the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 14.

Arizona Cardinals running back
James Conner got back on track to a degree in the Week 13 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Conner rushed for 68 yards on 17 carries while adding 13 receiving yards on three catches. It was another 20-plus touch game for Conner, and he has the full confidence of being the workhorse of the organization after signing a two-year contract extension this past weekend. With the contract noise behind him, confidence should be high for Conner and the Cardinals, and they will rely on him heavily as they try to push their way into the playoffs down the stretch. Conner should once again remain in the starting lineup as the Cardinals return home to take on the Seattle Seahawks in Week 14.

Quarterback
Kyler Murray had an average fantasy outing in the Week 13 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Murray completed 31 of his 45 passing attempts for 260 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Murray also ran the ball seven times for 48 yards. This marks back-to-back weeks in which Murray has thrown an interception, an issue he will need to address as the Cardinals continue their playoff push. Despite two subpar performances, fantasy managers should not be discouraged from starting him moving forward. The Cardinals will face the Seattle Seahawks in an important Week 14 matchup that could decide the winner of the NFC West.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Emari Demercado (shoulder), who was listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 13 contest in Minnesota against the Vikings on Sunday, is officially active. Demercado was limited in practice all week but will be active on Sunday as they Cardinals look to bounce back in a hostile environment after dropping a big game to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks last week. The 25-year-old shouldn't be in any starting fantasy lineups in Minnesota as the RB3 in Arizona behind
James Conner and rookie
Trey Benson. Demercado has had more than two touches in only four of his 11 appearances in 2024. The former TCU product will only be worth a waiver-wire pickup if one of Conner or Benson gets hurt and misses time. Demercado has only 21 carries for 211 yards and one TD in his second year in the NFL.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Marvin Harrison Jr. has been quiet with only 10 receptions over his last three games. However, head coach Jonathan Gannon says he plans to get Harrison more involved during Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. It hasn't been a great rookie season for Harrison who has 36 receptions for 546 yards and six touchdowns coming into Week 13. The hope is that Harrison actually does better in Week 13, but he should be treated as a low-end WR2.

Arizona Cardinals rookie defensive tackle Darius Robinson (calf) is set to make his season debut against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 13. Robinson has been sidelined up to this point due to a lingering calf issue that forced him onto the injured reserve. He has been practicing and working his way back slowly for months now. The Cardinals are excited to get their first-round pick back on the field for this game. The Missouri product figures to play a rotational role during his NFL debut on Sunday.

Arizona Cardinals kicker
Chad Ryland can be left on waivers in most fantasy leagues for Week 13. While Ryland flashed real promise early in his stint with the Cardinals, his productivity has declined recently, and he missed his second field goal of the season last week. The 25-year-old now ranks as the overall K15 in scoring since taking over kicking duties in Arizona ahead of Week 5. To make matters worse, Ryland faces the Minnesota Vikings this Sunday. Minnesota has allowed the absolute fewest fantasy points to kickers in 2024, holding the position to an average of just one field goal and 1.8 extra points per game. Managers should look elsewhere for production at the kicker position.

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back
Trey Benson hasn't been a starting fantasy option all year long while working behind starter
James Conner, and that won't change in a tough Week 13 matchup on the road against the Minnesota Vikings this Sunday. The Vikings defense has been stingy against the run, allowing just 14.8 half-PPR points to the position per game, which is the third-fewest in the league. Meanwhile, the 21-year-old third-rounder out of Florida State has seen double-digit carries just twice in his first 10 NFL games. Arizona wasn't able to get anything going on the ground last week in the loss to Seattle, either, with Benson's 18 rushing yards on four carries leading the team. Benson's long-term fantasy value took a hit with the Conner extension announced on Saturday, and he won't be a realistic fantasy starter with minimal volume in a bad matchup this weekend.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Michael Wilson should be considered a boom-or-bust WR4/flex in fantasy leagues heading into a Week 13 tilt on Sunday on the road against the Minnesota Vikings. Most fantasy managers won't be giving Wilson the time of day after a two-catch, 54-yard performance in the Week 12 loss to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old also has only two scores on the season and has gone over five receptions just once in 11 games. Wilson has exceeded 50 receiving yards in a game only three times. He's tied for 78th among all receivers with 6.4 half-PPR points per game. Facing the Vikings on the road is no picnic, but Minnesota's defense has allowed the second-most half-PPR points per game to the position, including 13 TDs allowed, so if Wilson is going to have a big game out of nowhere, this could be the week.
