Cardinals Uncertain About James Conner's Availability for Week 1

The Arizona Cardinals are evaluating the health of their running backs as they prepare for their Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.

James Conner is recovering from a foot injury that cut his 2025 season short, and his participation in practice has been limited this summer. Head coach Mike LaFleur mentioned that while Conner is showing signs of improvement, there is still uncertainty regarding his readiness for the season opener.

Meanwhile, Jeremiyah Love is dealing with an ankle injury that will prevent him from practicing this week. If both players are unable to play, Tyler Allgeier is expected to take on the primary running back role for the start of the regular season.
