Summary

What a season from James Conner in 2021, he quietly scored 15 rushing touchdowns in 15 games played and also scored three receiving touchdowns. He finished as the fifth best fantasy running back in 2021 and entering 2022 his parth to production is even higher with Chase Edmonds now in Miami. Conner saw all the goal line work and although he only rushed for 752 yards his 15 touchdowns can't go over looked. He also caught 37 of 39 targets for 375 yards and was the centerpiece of the Cardinals offense for most of 2021. With only Eno Benjamin and rookie Keaontay Ingram behind him, he is set up nicely for another big season ahead.
