Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Likely out with high-ankle sprain
Demercado sustained a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's 41-22 loss to the 49ers and is unlikely to be available for the Cardinals' Week 12 game against the Jaguars, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Demercado gained eight rushing yards on five carries and added two receptions for 12 yards on three targets before he departed in the second quarter. Given that high-ankle sprains often entail multi-week recoveries, Demercado will be at risk of missing time beyond the Cardinals' upcoming matchup with the Jaguars. Bam Knight (five carries for 24 yards, four catches for 21 yards in Week 11) and Michael Carter (two carries for six yards, five catches for 22 yards) should be in line for expanded profiles out of the backfield in Week 12, unless Trey Benson (knee) makes an unexpected return from injured reserve.

Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Officially out for Week 12
Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that Demercado (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Demercado will miss Week 12 while recovering from a high-ankle sprain, while Gannon also confirmed that running back Trey Benson (knee) will have his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday. It remains to be seen if Benson will be a realistic candidate to return in time to face Jacksonville on Sunday, however. In the event that Benson is unavailable again alongside Demercado, a combination of Bam Knight and Michael Carter will be positioned to lead Arizona's backfield.

Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Injures ankle Sunday

Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Goes for over 100 total yards
Demercado took four carries for 64 yards while catching three of four targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 44-22 loss to Seattle.
Bam Knight (ankle) started Sunday's contest and led Arizona's backfield with 10 carries before exiting late due to injury. Demercado was already having the more productive day, although over half of his 100-plus yards from scrimmage came in garbage time. The TCU product could be in line to start against the 49ers next Sunday if Knight's injury proves to be serious. Demercado will also have to contend with the potential return of Trey Benson (knee) from injured reserve, but the former is currently the healthiest option out of Arizona's backfield heading into Week 11.

Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Stars in return from injury
Demercado (ankle) took 14 carries for 79 yards and lost one yard on his only reception in Monday's 27-17 win over Dallas.
Demercado used the Cardinals' bye week to fully recover from an ankle injury that wound up costing him just one contest. The 26-year-old jumped right into a prominent role, leading the backfield in production even though Bam Knight drew the start. Knight still saw plenty of involvement with 47 yards gained on 11 combined touches, but Demercado came out of the contest looking like the superior fantasy option. Trey Benson (knee) is eligible to be activated from injured reserve against the Seahawks in Week 10, but it's currently unclear if he'll be physically ready to play right away. Benson's eventual return should push Demercado back into a change-of-pace role, but the latter likely will maintain fantasy value until that happens.

Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Good to go Week 9
Demercado (ankle) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Cowboys.
Demercado was limited by an ankle issue in the first two practices of the week but he will avoid an injury tag for Week 9 after logging a full practice Saturday. Per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site on Saturday, head coach Jonathan Gannon said that Bam Knight will be the first running back to handle carries Monday but reiterated that he'll lean more heavily on whoever out of Knight, Demercado or Michael Carter is most effective as the game progresses.

Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Another limited session
Demercado (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity Friday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Demercado has cobbled together back-to-back capped sessions to begin the week as he seeks his first game action since he suffered a left ankle injury Week 6 in Indianapolis. He'll have one more chance to practice in full Saturday, or else risk heading into Monday's contest at Dallas with a designation. If Demercado is able to return to action Week 9, he'll be in the mix for touches behind the backfield tandem of Bam Knight and practice-squad member Michael Carter.

Cardinals' Emari Demercado: Limited in return to practice
Demercado (ankle) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
Demercado thus logged his first on-field work since he injured his left ankle Week 6 at Indianapolis. He proceeded to sit out Week 7 against the Packers, but a Week 8 bye seemingly has afforded him enough recovery time to put himself in a position to play again. With James Conner (foot) out for the season and Trey Benson (knee) still on injured reserve for a few more weeks, the Cardinals are set to roll with Bam Knight as their primary runner, but who between Demercado and practice-squad members Michael Carter and Jermar Jefferson is the No. 2 on Monday in Dallas remains to be seen.
