Beanie Wells Injury Update: Whisenhunt “Very Optimistic” Wells Will Play

When the Arizona Cardinals take on the New York Giants, it looks like they will have their starting running back Beanie Wells available. Officially, Wells is listed as "questionable" on the injury report with a hand injury. "We'll still work him out before the game, but I still feel very optimistic he'll be able to play," Whisenhunt said after Friday's practice.

Getting back the leading rusher would help the Cardinals tremendously against the Giants. Wells has had over 90 yards rushing and at least one touchdown in both of his starts this season. Without Wells last week, the Cardinals struggled to rush the football and became one dimensional. Not only that, but the Cardinals struggled on third and short last week, which Wells should also improve. Wells talks as if he knows he’s going to play, so starting him for fantasy shouldn’t be an issue.
