Zonovan Knight is the Arizona Cardinals number 20 running back, a 4-year pro, and finished the 2025 regular season as a low-end fantasy option at his position. He averaged 6.8 fantasy points per game across 12 appearances, which ranks him 47th among running backs in our 2026 draft board. That per-game number is the starting point for every start or sit decision you make with him in 2026.
Zonovan Knight finished 2025 with 269 rushing yards and 4 ground scores. He added 22 catches for 160 receiving yards, a meaningful passing-game role that lifts his PPR floor without making him a pure receiving back.
Zonovan Knight profiles as a traditional early-down workhorse. When his team is ahead or in a favorable script, his volume is elite. When the game turns into a passing contest, his ceiling drops. Target him in spots where Vegas implies a positive script and his team is favored.
Heading into 2026, Zonovan Knight projects as a core piece of the Arizona Cardinals offense. Managers drafting him need to plan around his Week 11 bye and monitor training camp reports for role changes. DraftCall's AI comparison engine lets you pit him against any other NFL player in seconds, factoring in matchup quality, recent form, and scoring format, so you can make start or sit calls with real reasoning instead of gut feel.
