After spending his first two seasons stuck behind David Johnson, Chase Edmonds is still second in the Cardinals backfield this season behind Kenyan Drake. Drake had some truly gigantic fantasy performances down the stretch and there's no question that he deserves to be valued highly in drafts, but fantasy owners might just be sleeping on Edmonds.
He saw the field only sparingly for the first few weeks of the 2019 season, but Edmonds quietly began to sneak onto the field a bit more in the weeks leading up to Johnson's injury. Then Edmonds proceeded to absolutely crush in his one starting opportunity, as he accumulated 150 total yards and three touchdowns on 29 total touches. Fantasy owners were ecstatic that they might have struck gold off the waiver wire, but the ride didn't last long as Edmonds unfortunately suffered a hamstring injury that would keep him off the field for three weeks. By the time he returned, the Cardinals had traded for Kenyan Drake who had taken over the backfield and Edmonds simply didn't look like the same player in the limited opportunities he did get to spell Drake down the stretch.
The Cardinals did draft Eno Benjamin who himself was a serious weapon out of the backfield at Arizona State, but Edmonds appears to be entrenched as at least the primary backup for Drake. He may even see between eight to 12 touches per week when Drake is healthy, given that the Cardinals run a fast-paced offense that regularly requires them to give breathers to their starters.
Now healthy after a full offseason, Edmonds could have fantasy-viable weeks even if Drake remains healthy as the starter. He's a solid contributor in the passing game and he's shown an ability to find the end zone near the goal line. He also looks to be one of the few late-round handcuff-type running backs who has real upside to provide RB1 weeks in the case that he does become the starter.

Christian Kirk lands on COVID-19 list Arizona limping into Week 17 By: Mike Krueger | Sat Jan 2, 11:30 pm

| | We have placed WR Christian Kirk on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. (Arizona Cardinals on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: With Kirk down, Kyler Murray nursing a leg injury and Chase Edmonds battling a hip issue the Cardinals will be at less than 100 percent when the face the Rams in Week 17. Edmonds is a gametime decision but their is optimism he will play. The Rams will be without Cooper Kupp and Jared Goff.

| Gametime decision for Chase Edmonds, Larry Fitzgerald Hip injury for Edmonds By: Mike Krueger | Fri Jan 1, 2:30 pm

| | Kingsbury said it'll be game-day decisions whether RB Chase Edmonds and WR Larry Fitzgerald will play Sunday.
S Budda Baker is "sore" but Kingsbury is hopeful he will play. (Darren Urban on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Both missed practice on Friday and haven't practiced all week making them on the wrong side of questionable. If Edmonds misses, this will lock Kenyan Drake into a workhorse role against the Rams. Los Angeles has done well against running backs this season allowing the fifth fewest fantasy points to the position.

| Chase Edmonds expected to play Ankle injury By: Mike Krueger | Sun Dec 20, 7:45 am

| | Cardinals’ RB Chase Edmonds, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a sprained ankle, plans to play against the Eagles, though he does want to first test it in pre-game warmups, per source. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Ian Rapoport noted that Edmonds could have a reduced role depending on how he feels. It might be wise to leave Edmonds on your bench this week if you have equal options. The Eagles have been relatively stingy against running backs this season.
