Chris Johnson will back up Kerwynn Williams for Cardinals in Week 2
Arizona Cardinals running back Chris Johnson will back up starter Kerwynn Williams in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.
What It Means:
Andre Ellington will be the primary back on third downs with Johnson simply taking care of change-of-pace duties behind Williams. Johnson isn't viable in any fantasy format, even in a plus matchup against an Indianapolis Colts team that let up 46 points last week.
All three Cardinals running backs sit outside the top-50 in projected fantasy backs this week, with Williams leading the way at 5.14 FanDuel points on a $6,100 salary.
