Cardinals RB Emari Demercado (ankle) will not play in Arizona's Week 14 game against the Rams.He had gone limited-limited over the first two days of the week, but Demercado popped up with a surprise DNP on Friday and was ruled out. That's just normal Cardinals backfield stuff these days, as the world has conspired to give Zonovan Knight RB2/FLEX assignments. Arizona also named Xavier Weaver (hamstring) as questionable after he DNP'ed, a move that had Cardinals beat Darren Urban predicting a lot of Trent Sherfield on Sunday. So, you know, there are healthier teams in the league.
Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said he "hope[s]" Trey Benson (knee) will return this season, but "he's just not there yet."When the deadline to activate Benson from his 21-day window was mentioned to Gannon, he noted "that doesn't mean you can't activate him and then he could possibly be down." It doesn't sound like Benson is particularly close to returning at this point. Zonovan Knight will continue to fill in as the lead back in the meantime for the Cardinals.
