The Cardinals running back appears headed towards the dreaded game-time decision on Monday night. We break down the fantasy implications.
Arizona Cardinals running back Andre Ellington made some progress and will likely be a game-time decision for the team's Monday night game against the San Diego Chargers. Ellington got in a limited practice on Saturday but his status for Monday remains unclear.
Fantasy Impact: Ellington's status leaves fantasy owners in a bind to start the season. His progress is encouraging after initial reports suggested he could miss four to six weeks when he sustained the injury. However, Ellington owners are not in an enviable position because his top handcuff Jonathan Dwyer is a significant downgrade.
Risk-averse owners need to have Dwyer rostered and ready to go if Ellington is ruled out on Monday. One could do worse for a handcuff than Dwyer's 4.2 career YPC and three games over 100 rushing yards. However, he is still an uninspiring option in Arizona's pass-happy scheme running behind their patchwork offensive line. Ellington is a mid-range RB2 if he suits up. Dwyer is a low-end RB2/flex if Ellington is ruled out.
