Cardinals Hopeful James Conner Plays Sunday

The Arizona Cardinals are "hopeful" that running back James Conner (ribs) will be able to play against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9, according to ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler. He has missed the last three weeks and is still expected to be a game-time call, but it certainly looks like the 27-year-old is trending in the right direction. Conner has touchdown upside, but Eno Benjamin will likely play most passing downs. If active, both Conner and Benjamin should be viewed as RB3 options.
