Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Michael Wilson should seldom be started this weekend when his team lines up against the Seattle Seahawks in a road tilt. The Stanford alum is a strong route-runner and currently leads his fellow wideouts in snaps. However, that is mainly due to teammate
Marvin Harrison Jr. missing most of one game after sustaining a concussion. While Wilson has had a few viable fantasy performances this year, they've typically only taken place when he's gotten into the end zone. The Seahawks present as a middle-of-the-road matchup regarding their pass defense, so it's not exactly one to shy away from. Still, the 24-year-old is averaging just three receptions and 30.7 yards over his ten contests, so fantasy managers can likely find a better option to slot in his place. Wilson ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR53 for this weekend's slate of action.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Marvin Harrison Jr. ranks as a WR2 in the Cardinals' divisional matchup against the Seahawks in Week 12. Harrison Jr. has been inconsistent in fantasy this season, which has made starting him a tough decision for fantasy managers. The silver lining is that he has still been targeted a decent amount, receiving over five targets in each of his last four games. The Seahawks rank 22nd in opposing wide receiver fantasy points this season and have been prone to allowing big plays to wide receivers. With it being a divisional matchup, the Cardinals will rely on all of their playmakers, and it is reasonable to expect Harrison Jr. to be involved in the passing attack. Harrison Jr. is valued as a WR2 and should be played in deep leagues.

Tight end
Trey McBride is valued as a high-end TE1 in Week 12 when the Arizona Cardinals travel to Seattle to take on the Seahawks. McBride has solidified himself as one of the premier tight ends in fantasy football this season, ranking as the fourth-best tight end overall. Despite his lack of touchdown production, McBride has still been a strong fantasy asset and a mainstay at the position. The Cardinals often target McBride on key third downs, and in this divisional matchup, they are expected to rely on him in the passing game. The Seahawks rank 18th in opposing TE fantasy points allowed, and fantasy managers should continue to start McBride in Week 12.

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back
Trey Benson has begun to slowly find a role in the offense and could be in store for a solid workload in their Week 12 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. During Week 9, the rookie logged eight carries with one target. Then in Week 10, Benson earned a season-high 10 attempts and two targets in their decisive victory over the New York Jets. During this two-game stretch, Benson has averaged an impressive 5.5 yards per carry. Before this, Benson saw just six rushing attempts during Weeks 6-8. While fantasy managers should still expect
James Conner to operate as the clear leader of the backfield, Benson could be a viable low-end flex option in 14-plus team formats, especially if the Cardinals are playing with a lead. In addition, given how well he is running the ball, Benson could produce a solid fantasy stat line.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Emari Demercado (shoulder) was removed from the injury report and doesn't carry a designation heading into Sunday's divisional clash with the Seahawks. The 25-year-old has been battling a shoulder injury, resulting in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday. However, he was a full-go on Friday. Demercado has only 20 carries for 197 yards and a touchdown this season, adding 11 catches for 86 yards. With
James Conner and
Trey Benson healthy and available for Sunday's contest, Demercado likely won't get much work, so fantasy managers should keep him out of the starting lineup or off the roster altogether.

Arizona Cardinals running back
James Conner has boom potential in their Week 12 road matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The Cardinals are coming off a bye week, which afforded Conner much-needed rest after his heavy workload through the first ten games of the season. Conner is having one of his best seasons as a pro and is on pace for 1,185 yards and eight touchdowns. He'll look to maintain that pace against a familiar opponent in the Seahawks, against whom he has racked up over 300 total yards and four touchdowns in four games as a Cardinal. This should be a favorable matchup for the Cardinals' rushing attack, and Conner should be started in all leagues.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Kyler Murray should be viewed as a high-end QB1 in fantasy football for Week 12. The Cardinals are coming off a bye week and will travel to Seattle to take on the Seahawks in an important divisional matchup. Murray has been playing some of his best football recently, and the Cardinals' offense is operating at one of the highest levels in the NFL. The Seahawks' defense has been inconsistent this season and ranks in the middle of the pack, 19th, against opposing fantasy quarterbacks. The Cardinals are coming off two impressive blowout victories, where Murray's rushing ability wasn't needed to secure the win. However, in what should be a closely contested divisional game, you can expect the Cardinals to give Murray more rushing responsibilities. Fantasy managers should have full confidence in Murray as their starting quarterback this week.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Emari Demercado (shoulder) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. This is now back-to-back limited sessions which puts Demercado's status in danger ahead of the Week 12 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. He hasn't been a huge piece to the offense with only three carries last week. However, Demercado recorded 59 rushing yards and a touchdown versus the Chicago Bears earlier this month. Despite that, Demercado remains the third string back and won't have much streaming appeal even if healthy this weekend.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Emari Demercado (shoulder) was a limited participant in the team's first practice after their Week 11 bye. The TCU product evidently picked up a shoulder issue at some point between Arizona's 31-6 victory over the New York Jets in Week 10 and Wednesday's practice, but that he could log a limited session suggests it might not be that serious. The Cards have a divisional clash on tap with the Seattle Seahawks this Sunday, and the 25-year-old will have two more opportunities to elevate his practice status before the team must label him with a designation for the Week 12 road tilt. Rookie running back
Trey Benson has seen his snap and opportunity share increase over the team's last few games and would be in line for more work behind lead back
James Conner if Demercado can't suit up.

Arizona Cardinals right tackle Jonah Williams (knee) is being activated from the Injured Reserve list following the team's Week 11 bye. Williams played just 22 snaps in Week 1 before suffering a knee injury that has sidelined him since, and his return could provide a nice boost to an ascending offense. Quarterback
Kyler Murray and running back
James Conner have been mostly strong fantasy football assets in 2024, so the return of a starting offensive lineman at a key position can only help their chances to continue producing in the final stretch of the 2024 campaign. Williams spent the first four seasons of his career with the Cincinnati Bengals before signing with the AFC West squad this offseason.

Arizona Cardinals linebacker Markus Bailey has been suspended six games for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. The loss of Bailey won't mean much for this Cardinals roster given Bailey has only played in one game in 2024. Bailey spent four seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals before joining the Cardinals this offseason. Bailey will be eligible to return at the end of the regular season, but he was a non-factor on this defense anyway.

Arizona Cardinals tight end
Trey McBride delivered another solid performance in the Cardinals' 31-6 win over the New York Jets. McBride recorded four catches for 71 yards and made multiple momentum-shifting plays that became a dagger in the Jets' defense. McBride made a massive play on third down, breaking a tackle and hurdling a defender for the third straight week. Fantasy managers haven't had to put much thought into the position with McBride on their rosters; however, they'll have to look to a streamer with the team entering a bye week.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Michael Wilson ended up as fourth in the pecking order for targets during the huge win over the New York Jets on Sunday. The second-year wideout finished the game with three receptions for 24 yards on four targets. The Cardinals opted to go more run-heavy in this game as they produced 32 carries compared to 24 pass attempts. This game further proved that Wilson is more of an afterthought in the offense as he's now posted six games with fewer than five targets and seven games with fewer than five receptions. The Cardinals have a bye in Week 11 before taking on the Seattle Seahawks in Week 12.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Marvin Harrison Jr. had a solid game in the win over the New York Jets, connecting with quarterback
Kyler Murray on a nine-yard touchdown pass. Harrison's official stat line was five catches for 54 yards and a touchdown. Despite the Cardinals taking a commanding lead and shifting to a run-first approach, Harrison was still productive. The Cardinals made it clear that a point of emphasis was to get Harrison the ball often, singling him out in man-to-man situations and targeting him near the red zone. This was a sign of good things to come, but the Cardinals will have to wait a week to build on it, as they have a bye week in Week 11.
