Receiving TD in Sunday's loss
RBArizona Cardinals
November 30, 2025
Knight rushed 11 times for 62 yards and brought in all three targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 20-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Knight was the clear lead back due to Emari Demercado (ankle) being sidelined, and the 24-year-old put together a season-high yardage total while logging double-digit carries for the second straight game and fifth time in the last seven contests overall. Knight also averaged a season-high 5.6 yards per carry, and he recorded the first receiving touchdown of his career on a 15-yard grab during a broken play late in the third quarter. As Jess Root of USA Today notes, Knight didn't see the field after the 10:46 mark in the fourth quarter, though that may have been a byproduct of Arizona favoring its passing-down personnel featuring Michael Carter in the backfield. Knight had been nursing a knee injury coming into Sunday, so his practice activity may be worth keeping an eye on during Week 14 prep. Even if his knee doesn't prove to be a concern, Knight could still be in line for a lightened workload next Sunday versus the Rams if Trey Benson (knee) is cleared to return from injured reserve.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Knight spent most of 2022 on the Jets' practice squad until injuries paved the way for the undrafted rookie out of North Carolina State to debut in Week 12. The man known as "Bam" came in with a bang, topping 100 scrimmage yards in each of his first two NFL appearances before adding 77 scrimmage yards and a touchdown in his third game. Knight ran out of gas after that, mustering just 70 rushing yards on 39 carries over his final four games. New York hopes to have starter Breece Hall back from ACL surgery by Week 1, signed Dalvin Cook in August and drafted running back Israel Abanikanda in the fifth round to go with 2021 fourth-round pick Michael Carter, so Knight could be relegated back to the practice squad unless the Jets opt to roster five running backs.
Knight signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent after topping 900 scrimmage yards in 12 games last year at NC State, and the 21-year-old running back will try to secure a depth spot in New York's backfield. He also had two kickoff return touchdowns in 2021, so Knight's best chance of making the roster is as a return specialist.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In line for lead role
RBArizona Cardinals
October 12, 2025
Knight is expected to serve as Arizona's lead back against the Colts in Week 6, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Arizona could lean on the ground game in the absence of Kyler Murray, who is sidelined by a foot injury. Knight's physical running style makes him a better fit for a heavy workload than fellow former Jet Michael Carter, who led Arizona's backfield in the Week 5 loss to Tennessee. Carter's expected to play more of a change-of-pace role behind Knight against the Colts, with Emari Demercado possibly factoring into the backfield mix as well.
