Emari Demercado, Zach Pascal Ruled Out For Cardinals

12 months ago

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back Emari Demercado (toe) and wide receiver Zach Pascal (hamstring) have both been ruled out for Week 11 against the Houston Texans on Sunday. Demercardo was trending in the right direction with two limited practices this week before picking up a DNP, so now he'll miss his third straight game. The undrafted 24-year-old was already looking at a backup role in Arizona's backfield with James Conner (knee) returning from Injured Reserve last week. Demercado is merely a handcuff for those that have Conner rostered in deeper leagues. Keaontay Ingram and the recently acquired Michael Carter will be change-of-pace options behind Conner this Sunday.
