HIGHLIGHT: Bam Knight Rushes For A 1-Yard Touchdown Cardinals RB Bam Knight rushes for a 1-yard touchdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • AZCARDINALS.COM

Cleared to play, unlike Trey Benson Knight (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact An upgrade to full practice participation Friday makes Knight the clear favorite to lead a backfield that won't have Trey Benson (knee) or Emari Demercado (ankle). That said, Arizona's backfield roles have been highly variable and unpredictable, so it won't be too surprising if Michael Carter and/or Jermar Jefferson also get a large chunk of the workload.

Another limited showing Knight (ankle) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact In the wake of Emari Demercado (ankle) being ruled out for Week 12 and the Cardinals designating Trey Benson (knee) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Knight himself is dealing with a health concern this week that's capped his practice reps. Friday's injury report will reveal whether or not Knight enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Jaguars, but even if he's able to suit up, his eventual workload may be contingent on the team's decision regarding Benson, who will need to be activated from IR by Saturday afternoon to have a chance to play this weekend. Aside from Knight, Michael Carter represents the other running back on Arizona's active roster.

Tending to ankle issue Knight was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to an ankle injury, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Arizona welcomed back Trey Benson to practice for the first time since late September after the team designated him for return from injured reserve Wednesday. Benson has been sidelined in the meantime following surgery on a meniscus injury in his knee, a span in which a combination of Knight, Emari Demercado and Michael Carter have all filled in in the backfield in some capacity. Demercado already has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars due to a high-ankle sprain, and a new health concern for Knight further clouds the Cardinals' potential Week 12 backfield. As such, the situation bears watching as the week continues to see if Benson is activated from IR, and if Knight can avoid a designation going into the weekend. At the moment, Carter is the only healthy RB on the active roster.

Backfield in flux to begin Week 12 Knight could be positioned for increased opportunities Sunday versus the Jaguars with Emari Demercado (ankle) ruled out, though the Cardinals have also designated Trey Benson (knee...

Impact Knight will be the favorite to lead the Cardinals' backfield in a committee with Michael Carter versus Jacksonville if both Demercado and Benson are unavailable. If Benson is able to come off IR and play Week 12, however, he will stand to either step into the No. 1 role or force a true three-headed approach alongside Knight and Carter. As such, Knight remains worthy of a roster spot in most fantasy formats, but his actual upside for Week 12 may not become clear until Arizona has had a chance to monitor Benson at practice.

Scores only rushing TD for ARZ Knight (ankle) rushed five times for 24 yards and a touchdown while adding four receptions for 21 yards in Sunday's 41-22 loss to the 49ers.

Impact Knight was a limited participant in practice all week with a bum ankle, but he was able to suit up Sunday and finish as the Cardinals' leading rusher. The 24-year-old outproduced Emari Demercado (5-8-0), which is the inverse of how the backfield mates had performed in recent weeks. Michael Carter remained involved with 28 combined yards on seven touches, making this a truly frustrating committee to predict on a weekly basis. The fact that Knight started and scored Arizona's only rushing score of the contest makes him the preferred fantasy option by default heading into next Sunday's tilt against Jacksonville.

Active in Week 11 Knight (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Knight exited in the fourth quarter of last Sunday's loss at Seattle due to an ankle injury that left him limited on all three of the Cardinals' Week 11 practice reports. Adam Schefter of ESPN then reported Saturday evening that Knight was in line to play this weekend, which now will come to pass. Knight and Emari Demercado have split most of the touches afforded to the team's running backs over the last two games, with each earning 22 apiece. However, Demercado has been far more effective than Knight, out-producing him 182 to 80 in terms of yards from scrimmage during that span.

Appears set to suit up Sunday Knight, who is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 11 contest versus San Francisco due to an ankle injury, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Knight made an early exit from last Sunday's loss to Seattle after injuring his ankle. He was able to log three limited practice sessions this week, which appears to be good enough for him to take the field against the 49ers on Sunday. It's unclear who between Knight and Emari Demercado will get the start at RB for Arizona on Sunday, and it wouldn't be surprising if each of the duo gets a similar amount of touches in the NFC West battle.

NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as questionable Knight (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact The Cardinals listed Knight as a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, following his early exit from a 44-22 loss to the Seahawks in Week 10. He worked as Arizona's lead rusher before the injury -- a reverse from Week 9 when Emari DeMercado got 14 carries -- but Knight gained just 33 total yards on 11 touches before his fourth-quarter exit at Seattle. The lack of role consistency/certainty in Arizona's backfield will make Knight a shaky fantasy option even if he avoids the inactive list before a 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff this Sunday.

NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Another limited showing Knight (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Knight maintained his activity level from Wednesday's walkthrough, giving him just one more chance to practice in full this week, or else he'll be at risk of entering the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest versus the 49ers. Over the last two games, Knight has split most of the backfield snaps with Emari Demercado, but he's been far less efficient with them, as evidenced by 22 touches for 80 yards from scrimmage (as opposed to Demercado's 182 total yards on the same number of touches).

NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited at walkthrough Knight (ankle) was a limited participant at Wednesday's walkthrough, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact Knight and Emari Demercado have been splitting the majority of the RB snaps since the Cardinals' Week 8 bye, with both players earning 22 touches apiece over the last two games. Demercado has been far more effective with those reps, accruing 182 yards from scrimmage to Knight's 80 total yards. Knight exited this past Sunday's loss at Seattle with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter, and he likely will need to log a full session Thursday and/or Friday in order to avoid a designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the 49ers.

Picks up ankle injury in Week 10 Knight sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's contest at Seattle.

Impact At the time he exited in the fourth quarter, Knight was pacing the Cardinals with 10 carries but only accrued 28 yards as a result. Plus, he had one catch (on four targets) for five yards and returned four kickoffs for 79 yards. Emari Demercado and Michael Carter are the remaining healthy running backs that are available on Arizona's active roster.

NOVEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Gains 47 yards in 11 touches Monday Knight rushed nine times for 27 yards and caught both of his targets for 20 yards in Monday's 27-17 win over Dallas.

Impact Knight watched teammate Emari Demercado (14-79-0) return from an ankle injury and reclaim the starter's workload out of Arizona's backfield. Head coach Jonathon Gannon stated that he would lean on the hotter hand Monday, and Demercado was that guy on Monday Night Football. Knight still handled a decent amount of touches, so he could retain value in deeper formats in a potential timeshare against the Seahawks on Sunday.
