Game Info
Kickoff: Sunday, November 15, 2026, 4:05 PM ET
Location: State Farm Stadium, Glendale, AZ
Network: CBS
Los Angeles Rams
Quarterback
Matthew Stafford: SIT, QB2 (Startable in Superflex)
With Puka Nacua now set to miss extended time after already losing Davante Adams, Matthew Stafford becomes a highly risky start in fantasy no matter what the matchup. It’s not that Stafford isn’t capable of carving up the porous Cardinals secondary with the likes of Tutu Atell and Kotana Mumpfield. But he likely won’t have to even try to.
Running Back
Kyren Williams: START, RB1
Blake Corum: START, RB2
Ronnie Rivers: SIT
Arizona is an overall neutral matchup, but with the bums the Rams are trotting out at receiver, and what’s left of the Arizona offense, I expect a hefty helping of the Rams’ run game. Kyren Williams ranks second at the position with .36 missed tackles forced per attempt, and Blake Corum‘s 15.1% explosive run rate is tied for fourth. Both should eat.
Wide Receiver
Tutu Atwell: SIT
Konata Mumpfield: SIT
Puka Nacua: OUT
No. At least for this week. If Atwell or Mumpfield can separate themselves in target share or red zone opportunities, we may be able to lean on them as a FLEX in future weeks. But so far, these have a total of two games this season with more than 4.0 PPR points. Not each. Combined.
Tight End
Tyler Higbee: SIT
Arizona is a top-10 fantasy matchup, and there’s a chance Tyler Higbee becomes the de facto WR1 with Nacua now out. But he’s averaging 2.7 points per game over his last three and hasn’t cleared six fantasy points since Week 5. You don’t win fantasy matchups by starting with “there’s a chance.”
Defense/Special Teams
Los Angeles Rams: START
Arizona turns to Carson Beck for his first career start and has the lowest implied total of the week at 15 points. The Rams are 9.5-point road favorites.
Arizona Cardinals
Quarterback/Running Back/Wide Receiver/Tight End
Carson Beck: SIT
Tyler Allgeier: FLEX, RB3
Bam Knight: SIT
Simi Fehoko: SIT
Reggie Virgil: SIT
Devin Duvernay: SIT
Trey McBride: START, TE1
You start Trey McBride. That’s it. If you’re desperate for a warm body at running back, Tyler Allgeier should see plenty of work with Jeremiyah Love still on IR and Bam Knight still in concussion protocol. If Knight clears and is active, don’t bother with either back.
Defense/Special Teams
Arizona Cardinals: SIT
Arizona allows the second-most points per game and has the third-fewest takeaways. Their offense won’t be able to stay on the field long enough for any defensive player to drink a full cup of Gatorade.
