James Conner of the Arizona Cardinals faced a knee injury during the Week 17 game against the Los Angeles Rams. After being limited in practice leading up to the game, he was able to play but struggled early on, rushing for just four yards and catching two passes for another four yards before being deemed questionable to return. With the Cardinals eliminated from playoff contention, the team may take a cautious approach with Conner moving forward.

• Conner's knee injury raises concerns about his availability for the remainder of the season.
• Michael Carter is expected to lead the backfield if Conner cannot return.
