What It Means:

Ingram is expected to play in Week 6 against the Los Angeles Rams after he was inactive the past two games due to a neck injury. The Cardinals will likely split work between Ingram and Demercado on Sunday, but one of them could take over as the lead back while James Conner (knee) is on injured reserve. Ingram has only gained 104 yards from scrimmage on 44 career touches (2.4 yards per touch).

Ingram ($5,600) is the RB32 in numberFire's Week 6 rankings and our models project him for 7.3 FanDuel points, with 10.5 touches and 44.1 yards from scrimmage. Demercado ($5,900) is our RB31 and projected for 8.1 FanDuel points, with 12.1 touches and 52.9 offensive yards. The Rams are allowing the 10th-fewest FanDuel points per game to running backs this season while their run defense is No. 16 in numberFire's opponent-adjusted NEP model.
