Edmonds rushed 27 times for 126 yards and three touchdowns and caught two passes for 24 yards. Edmonds has averaged 5.62 yards per carry and has likely earned a larger share of the work when Johnson is healthy. Edmonds will be a flex option at the very least, but he could be an RB2 if Johnson is out against the New Orleans Saints.

The New York Giants Defense had a solid fantasy day on Sunday versus the Cardinals. Their defensive line put little pressure on Kyler Murray, and they got abused on the ground by Chase Edmonds, but you don't have to be a good real defense to have a good fantasy day. The rainy conditions prevented Murray from doing any damage through the air, and the Giants were able to record two sacks and block a punt that they recovered for a touchdown. They're not a recommended option next week against the...

He had 12 carries for 102 yards and five catches for 51 yards combined in the games, and he scored on the ground and through the air. Starting running back David Johnson (ankle) is a game-time decision this week, but he practiced more than he did before he played with a back injury last week. The matchup against the New York Giants is a solid one...

Johnson is expected to play, but he could be limited. Edmonds rushed eight times for 68 yards and a touchdown last week, and he tacked on three catches for 18 yards.

For now he is nothing more than a handcuff in redraft leagues for Johnson owners.
