You should have set your lineup already, but these two Cardinals should have been in it.
The Arizona Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys battle on Monday night in Week 9. They kick off Monday night at 8:15 p.m. ET (6:15 p.m. Arizona time). The Cowboys are favored in the game.
When it comes to fantasy, you already had your lineup set, but a couple of Cardinals should be in your lineup against the Cowboys.
2 Cardinals to start in fantasy
RB Bam Knight
Knight has become the Cardinals’ No. 1 back in the absence of both James Conner, who is out for the season, and Trey Benson, who is on injured reserve but will return soon.
According to USA TODAY, Knight should be in your lineup. He will be the lead back against a Cowboys team that is bad defensively and allowed 178 yards and three touchdowns to running backs last week.
QB Jacoby Brissett
Brissett has four touchdown passes in two starts. According to Fantasy Pros, whoever is the quarterback starting against the Cowboys should always be in the lineup.
The 25.4 points per game scored by “whoever is facing the Cowboys” is more than any individual quarterback has averaged this season.
Of course, considering the Cowboys’ offense, especially at home, and especially how the Cardinals play in the fourth quarter, any of the Cowboys’ skill players are always good to start.
