Cardinals Will Ride Hot Hand In The Backfield

The Cardinals "plan to ride the hot hand" in the backfield vs. the Titans on Sunday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "That includes Michael Carter and Bam Knight on base downs and Emari Demercado on third downs," Fowler adds. We still expect Carter to get the first shot at developing that hot hand -- and he remains the best fantasy bet in this backfield. But he clearly carries a wide range of outcomes. Demercado seems unlikely to get big rushing volume but could dominate passing-down work. Knight could be worth stashing in super deep fantasy leagues while we wait to see what this backfield looks like, but he shouldn't be in Week 5 fantasy lineups.
