Signs with Bills
Buffalo signed Isabella to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Analysis: Isabella was active for the Bills' divisional-round loss versus the Chiefs, and now he'll get a chance to compete for a spot on Buffalo's 53-man roster for 2024. Over four games this season (including playoffs), he drew one target, which he failed to haul in, and two kick returns for 44 yards.

Elevated for Sunday
The Bills elevated Isabella to the active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Isabella was promoted from the practice squad for the Bills' AFC wild-card victory over the Steelers. He returned one kickoff for 19 yards and did not haul in his lone target. With Gabe Davis (knee) ruled out for Sunday's AFC divisional round contest against the Chiefs, Isabella will likely see the playing field, albeit in a limited role on special teams.

Reverts to practice squad
Isabella reverted to Buffalo's practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Isabella had a 19-yard kickoff return and didn't catch his only target in Monday's 31-17 wild-card round win over the Steelers. He played seven snaps on offense and 14 on special teams. The wide receiver will be a candidate to be elevated prior to Sunday's divisional round home game against the Chiefs.

Bumped up from practice squad
Isabella was elevated to the active roster from the practice squad Sunday.
Analysis: Isabella will receive his first opportunity with the Bills since Week 12 as the team prepares to take the field against the Steelers on Monday without Gabe Davis (knee). The former has been on Buffalo's practice squad since the season started, receiving two elevations, which resulted in just one snap on offense.

Reverts to practice squad
The Bills reverted Isabella to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Isabella was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's Week 12 loss to the Eagles, and he didn't see any targets on two offensive snaps. The veteran wideout was more impactful on special teams, totaling 12 snaps and returning one kickoff for 25 yards. Isabella has been elevated from the practice squad twice this season, so the Bills can elevate him one more time before they'd have to sign him to the active roster in order to utilize him on gameday.

Elevated for Sunday
The Bills elevated Isabella from their practice squad Saturday.
Analysis: This is the second time Isabella has been elevated to the active roster this season since joining the Bills' practice squad Aug. 30. In his first appearance in Week 8 against the Buccaneers, Isabella played nine snaps on special teams without recording a stat.

Practice squad bound
Isabella was reverted back to the Bills' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: The 2019 second-round pick was promoted to Buffalo's active roster ahead of the team's Thursday night affair, but he's since been reverted back to the practice squad. Isabella has recorded 33 receptions for 447 yards and three touchdowns throughout his five-year NFL career.

Gets elevated for Thursday
Buffalo elevated Isabella from its practice squad to the active roster for Thursday's game versus Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Isabella is in position to make his 2023 debut in Week 8 on Thursday Night Football. Barring an injury to Stefon Diggs or Gabe Davis though, his theoretical path to significant playing time is difficult to see.

Sticks with Bills' practice squad
Isabella signed with the Bills' practice squad Wednesday, Sal Maiorana of the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Isabella was cut by Buffalo on Tuesday, but he'll stick around on the organization's practice squad. The 2019 second-round pick of the Cardinals has appeared in 41 NFL games between Arizona and Baltimore.

Misses final roster
Isabella has been cut by the Bills, Sal Maiorana of the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle reports.
Analysis: The former Arizona Cardinal had some bright spots in the preseason, but in the end the Bills will go with other "maybes" such as Trent Sherfield and Justin Shorter to fill out their wide receiver room. Isabella offers enough speed and kick return ability that he's probably not out of NFL chances.

Key role in preseason win
Isabella caught all three targets for 42 yards in Buffalo's preseason win over the Colts on Saturday. He also returned three kickoffs for 48 yards and one punt for five yards.
Analysis: Isabella is one of the newest members of the Bills, signing July 28, and it's a crowded receiver room that he's walked into. However, with running back Nyheim Hines being lost for the season with a knee injury, the Bills are looking for speed in terms of depth and being able to return kicks. Isabella will have to leapfrog a few people to land a spot on the team, but he's off to a good start.

Links up with Buffalo
Isabella is signing with the Bills, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: The 2019 second-round pick is an undersized receiver with sub-4.4 speed, now on his third NFL team after spending three-plus seasons with the Cardinals and most of last year with the Ravens. Isabella will turn 27 midseason and will need to compete with a slew of young players for a spot at the bottom of the depth chart in Buffalo.

Released by Baltimore
Isabella was released by the Ravens on Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Isabella signed with the Ravens' practice squad in October and was elevated to the active roster twice before the conclusion of the 2022 campaign, but he will now look for a new squad ahead of the 2023 campaign. The 2019 second-round pick by the Cardinals has struggled to be productive over his four-year NFL career, so he'll look to turn that around wherever he ends up next.

Lands new contract with Baltimore
The Ravens signed Isabella to a reserve/future contract Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Isabella will stick with Baltimore after joining the team's practice squad Oct. 10. The 5-foot-9 wideout collected 30 of 47 targets for 413 yards and three touchdowns over his first two seasons with Arizona, though he became a total non-factor in 2021 and was waived after the first four games of the 2022 regular season. Isabella was elevated for three games with Baltimore, including the loss to Cincinnati in the wild-card round of the playoffs. However, he never caught a pass while playing six…read more

Reverts to practice squad
Isabella reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Isabella was elevated for a third (and final) time during the wild-card loss to Cincinnati but failed to log any counting stats across three offensive snaps. He made five appearances during the 2022 campaign (three with Arizona and two with Baltimore) and caught two of five targets for 21 yards, which all came as a Cardinal.

Jumps up from practice squad
The Ravens elevated Isabella (thigh) from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's wild-card game at Cincinnati, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: This marks Isabella's third (and final) elevation of the 2022 season and his first since injuring his thigh Week 17 versus the Steelers. Considering he's back on the active roster, the health concern is behind him, and with Tylan Wallace (hamstring) hitting IR on Saturday, Isabella could be more utilized on offense this weekend than in prior games, with Demarcus Robinson, Sammy Watkins, James Proche and fellow practice-squad call-up Binjimen Victor serving as Baltimore's other healthy wide…read more

Shifts back to practice squad
Isabella reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Isabella was promoted to the active roster for the second time in as many weeks ahead of Sunday's loss to Pittsburgh. He wound up logging a one-yard rush while playing three of his six snaps on offense, and he was forced out with a thigh injury during the third quarter. It's unclear if this issue will affect his availability for the Ravens' regular-season finale, but he should still be considered a top candidate for a depth role in the team's undermanned receiving corps when healthy.

Injures thigh Sunday
Isabella suffered a thigh injury during Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Analysis: Prior to his exit in the third quarter, Isabella had one carry for one yard. The Ravens elevated him from the practice squad for Week 17 action, so he'll revert back for a second consecutive week Monday.

Elevated to active roster
The Ravens elevated Isabella from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of the Week 17 contest against the Steelers, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: This marks Isabella's second straight elevation for Baltimore, as he played three offensive snaps and five special-teams snaps last week against Atlanta. The fourth-year wideout also played in three games for the Cardinals earlier this season, catching two passes on five targets for 21 yards. The Ravens' passing game has been fairly unproductive of late with Tyler Huntley -- who will start Sunday against Pittsburgh -- at the helm in place of Lamar Jackson (knee).

Back to practice squad
Isabella reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday.
Analysis: The speedster primarily played on special teams Saturday despite questionable depth at wide receiver for the Ravens. It's hard to imagine the 2019 second-round pick really carving out a substantial fantasy role, but the offense could improve if Lamar Jackson (knee) is able to return in Week 17.

Promoted to roster
The Ravens elevated Isabella from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Saturday's matchup with Atlanta, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The 2019 second-round pick isn't likely to be a starter but could get some snaps given that Baltimore's other options at receiver are Demarcus Robinson, DeSean Jackson, James Proche and Sammy Watkins. The team put Devin Duvernay (foot) on injured reserve this week, creating an opportunity for someone -- perhaps Isabella -- to step up down the stretch this year. None of the bunch can be relied on for Week 16 fantasy, especially with Tyler Huntley starting under center instead of Lamar Jackson…read more

Finally joins Ravens
Isabella signed with the Ravens' practice squad Monday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Remains free agent
Isabella has not been signed by the Ravens and remains a free agent ahead of Week 5, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.
Analysis: With Rashod Bateman's (ankle) status for Week 5 unclear, it was reported that the Ravens were in line to sign Isabella to their practice squad, but it appears that deal was never completed. The extent of the situation remains unclear, but the 2019 second-round pick, who was recently waived by the Cardinals, remains a free agent. Isabella caught 33 of 53 targets for 447 yards and three touchdowns across 39 appearances for Arizona.

Joining Baltimore
The Ravens will sign Isabella to their practice squad, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Analysis: Isabella joins a receiving corps that lacks clarity behind top wideout Rashod Bateman. Considering Bateman didn't practice Wednesday due to a foot issue, Isabella could be elevated to the roster soon as this Sunday against the Bengals, assuming the team needs a healthy body at the position. In parts of four seasons as a Cardinal before he was waived Tuesday, Isabella, a 2019 second-round pick, recorded 33 catches (on 53 targets) for 447 yards and three touchdowns in 39 appearances.

Rocky run in Arizona ends
The Cardinals waived Isabella on Tuesday, Darren Urban of Arizona's official site reports.
Analysis: A second-round pick out of UMass in 2019, Isabella arrived in the NFL with much fanfare, but he never made much of an imprint in the Arizona passing attack helmed by draft classmate Kyler Murray. Even while the Cardinals were without DeAndre Hopkins (suspension) for each of the first four games, Rondale Moore (hamstring) for three of them and A.J. Green (knee) for one, Isabella managed just two receptions for 21 yards on five targets in the three games in which he was active. The 25-year-old…read more

One more catch in Week 3
Isabella gathered in one of two targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Isabella came out of the season opener with a back injury that sidelined him Week 2. He managed full practices during Week 3 prep and was able to log 39 percent of the offensive snaps in a receiving corps that was without DeAndre Hopkins (suspension), Antoine Wesley (hip, IR) and Rondale Moore (hamstring), while A.J. Green (knee) made an early departure Sunday. There's a chance Moore and Green are available this Sunday at Carolina, but if not, Isabella again could factor into the Cardinals'…read more

Isabella (back) practiced in full Wednesday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Analysis: Isabella emerged from the season opener with a back injury that didn't allow him to practice last week and sidelined him for this past Sunday's game at Las Vegas. With an uncapped session under his belt to kick off Week 3 prep, he's in line to return to action against the Rams this Sunday, when the Cardinals again could be without Rondale Moore (hamstring), in addition to the suspended DeAndre Hopkins and Antoine Wesley (hip).

Out this week
Isabella (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rondale Moore (hamstring) also is out, along with the suspended DeAndre Hopkins, leaving Marquise Brown, A.J. Green and Greg Dortch as the unquestioned top three at WR this weekend. Dortch saw a team-high nine targets in the opener and again should see some looks, but Brown is the downfield threat and de facto No. 1 receiver.

Not expected to play this week
Isabella (back) isn't expected to play Sunday against the Raiders, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Isabella didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday due to his back strain, and it appears as though he'll be held off the field in Week 2. However, his injury isn't considered a long-term issue, so it's possible that he returns for the Cardinals' Week 3 matchup against the Rams on Sept. 25. Isabella's likely absence will leave Arizona particularly shorthanded at wide receiver since Rondale Moore (hamstring) is also expected to be sidelined.

Absent again Thursday
Isabella (back) is not practicing Thursday, Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Isabella could be facing increased opportunities if he manages to suit up against the Raiders in Week 2, with Rondale Moore (hamstring) not practicing and DeAndre Hopkins (suspension) still absent. However, unless he can significantly upgrade his status Friday, it looks like Isabella is trending in the wrong direction.

Isabella (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Now, Isabella is dealing with an injury himself, potentially threatening his availability for Week 2 action in Las Vegas.

Analysis: Isabella caught one of three targets for 10 yards during Sunday's loss to the Chiefs and apparently picked up a back injury as well.

Nabs one catch in Week 1
Isabella caught one of three targets for 10 yards during Sunday's 44-21 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Isabella is getting a chance early on this season with DeAndre Hopkins serving a six-game suspension and Rondale Moore sitting out Week 1 due to a hamstring injury. Despite getting the fourth-most offensive snaps among Cards wide receivers, though, Isabella didn't do much with the 32-percent share behind Marquise Brown, Greg Dortch and A.J. Green.

Leading receiver Friday
Isabella caught four of seven targets for a team-high 57 yards in Friday's preseason game against the Bengals.
Analysis: The Cardinals' wide receiver depth could be tested to begin the season with DeAndre Hopkins suspended and Marquise Brown (hamstring) and Antoine Wesley (hip) both banged up, although Brown at least seems likely to be ready for Week 1. That could be enough to give Isabella, a second-round pick in 2019 who has been a bust in the NFL, one more chance to carve out a role in Arizona. He remains firmly behind A.J.

Allowed to seek trade
The Cardinals have granted Isabella permission to seek a trade, Marc Bertrand of 98.5 The Sports Hub Boston reports.
Analysis: Isabella was a healthy inactive for about half of his third NFL season in Arizona, and across his eight appearances in 2021, he was targeted only once. The 2019 second-round pick could stand to benefit from a change of scenery, as almost anywhere else would be an improvement for his outlook. Even if a trade were to occur, sabella is likely only on the fantasy radar in deeper dynasty formats at this point.

In COVID protocols
Coach Kliff Kingsbury said Thursday that Isabella (undisclosed) is on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Isabella will need to fully clear all of the league's protocols related to COVID-19 before rejoining teammates at training camp. Considering that the 2019 second-round pick was a healthy scratch at times last season, and only once surpassed 50 receiving yards in his 13 appearances, it could be impactful if he's forced to miss a sizeable amount of time. The offseason additions of Rondale Moore and A.J. Green already have Isabella positioned to only handle a reserve role, at best.

Notches two TDs in 2020
Isabella capped the 2020 campaign with 21 catches (on 35 targets) for 224 yards and two touchdowns in 13 games. He also had one rush for minus-6 yards.
Analysis: Among the wide receivers the Cardinals drafted in 2019, none of Isabella, Hakeem Butler and KeeSean Johnson have done much as a pro. The team waived Butler before Week 1 of the most recent season, but Isabella and Johnson alternated as healthy scratches for much of the year due to the top-heavy nature of the receiving corps. Isabella has flashed at times, notching five catches of 20-plus yards among his 30 career grabs. That said, with DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk and potentially Larry…read more

Active for first time since Week 13
Isabella is listed as active Sunday against the Rams, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Arizona is down two of its top three wide receivers, with Larry Fitzgerald (groin) inactive and Christian Kirk (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list. As a result, coach Kliff Kingsbury has opted to allow Isabella to suit up for the first time since Week 13. Prior to his string of three straight absences, Isabella recorded a trio of 20-plus yard catches between Weeks 2 and 5, but despite those big plays, he averaged just 10.7 YPC and 6.6 YPT on his 34 targets across 12 appearances.

Isabella (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Eagles.
Analysis: The Cardinals' receiving corps otherwise is intact, so Isabella's services aren't needed for a second straight contest.

Analysis: With Larry Fitzgerald back in the fold after a bout with COVID-19, Isabella was expected to take a step back in terms of usage Week 14, but he won't be available at all. Instead, KeeSean Johnson and perhaps Trent Sherfield will mix into the Cardinals offense when one of DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk or Fitzgerald need a breather.

Held in check Sunday
Isabella tallied two receptions (on five targets) for seven yards during Sunday's 38-28 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Isabella has been active for all 12 of the Cardinals' games this season, but a minimal snap count in most of them has quelled his production. He has been given more of an opportunity the last two contests with Larry Fitzgerald (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list, topping out at a season-high 84 percent of the snaps on offense Sunday. Still, Isabella has only managed more than 14 yards once in the past seven outings, so he can't be trusted, even with extra chances to contribute.

Doesn't do much with extra looks
Isabella caught four of six targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to New England.
Analysis: Isabella ranked second behind DeAndre Hopkins in catches, yards and targets as Kyler Murray threw for just 170 yards while being held without a passing touchdown for the first time all season. The 2019 second-round pick played a larger role with Larry Fitzgerald (illness) unavailable, and Isabella should continue to see some extra attention from Murray against the Rams in Week 13 with Fitzgerald unlikely to come off the COVID-19 list in time to return.

Set for more snaps
Isabella may play a larger role than normal Sunday at New England with Larry Fitzgerald (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With Fitzgerald sidelined due to a positive COVID-19 test, there's a large void to fill out of the slot. The Cardinals may opt to shift Christian Kirk inside more than usual, but Isabella and KeeSean Johnson are ready to come on the field when the offense goes with three-wide sets. Coach Kliff Kingsbury told Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site on Friday that RB Chase Edmonds and TE Dan Arnold also can line up at wide receiver, but Isabella likely will get the majority of the snaps…read more

Another sparse performance
Isabella recorded one catch (on two targets) for six yards during Thursday's 28-21 loss at Seattle.
Analysis: Prior to the Cardinals' Week 8 bye, Isabella logged between 30 and 50 percent of the snaps on offense in five of seven games. Since then, though, the range has been 15 to 27 percent over the last three contests. The result has been four receptions (on six targets) for 30 yards and no scores during the most recent stretch. On top of that, Isabella hasn't had a grab of 20-plus yards since Week 5. With little to no output to speak of on a weekly basis of late, he's tough to trust on the fantasy…read more

Targeted once Sunday
Isabella gathered in his only target for 14 yards during Sunday's 32-30 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Isabella was a distant fourth in offensive snap share (15 percent) to fellow wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins (96), Larry Fitzgerald (90) and Christian Kirk (74) in this contest. With limited usage, Isabella hasn't made any plays of more than 20 yards in four consecutive contests and six of nine games this season. As a result, he's difficult to trust in the majority of formats.

Snags two passes in loss to 'Phins
Isabella caught two of three targets for 10 yards during Sunday's 34-31 loss to Miami. He also fumbled on a kickoff return, but possession remained with Arizona.
Analysis: Christian Kirk and Larry Fitzgerald finished as Arizona's No. 1 and No. 2 leading receivers during the Week 9 loss, combining for 178 yards and a touchdown. Isabella, meanwhile, was held to 10 or fewer receiving yards for the fourth time in his past five outings. He totaled eight catches for 114 receiving yards and two TDs between Weeks 2 and 3, but since that point, he has managed just 50 combined receiving yards over his past five appearances. The UMass standout remains the Cardinals' No. 4…read more

Makes first catch since Week 5
Isabella hauled in one of three targets for seven yards during Sunday's 37-34 overtime win versus the Seahawks.
Analysis: Despite matching his season high with 50 percent of the snaps on offense Sunday, Isabella continued his vexing week-to-week output -- he failed to catch two deep shots Week 6 and was the target on Kyler Murray's sole interception this past Sunday, a far cry from his two-TD effort in Week 3. Aside from three catches longer than 20 yards this season, Isabella has totaled only 44 yards from scrimmage on his nine other touches, making him tough to consider as even a fill-in option.

Held without catch Monday
Isabella was blanked on two targets during Monday's 38-10 win in Dallas.
Analysis: The Cardinals took deep shots to Isabella on both of the first two drives of the game, but he seemed to have difficulty locating those balls and wasn't heard from thereafter. Later, in the second quarter, Christian Kirk hauled in a bomb from Kyler Murray and took it to the house for an 80-yard TD. Clearly, the Cardinals aren't afraid to allow Murray to unleash such throws a few times per game, but Isabella wasn't the beneficiary on this night. Considering his standing as the team's No. 4 WR,…read more

Has another catch of 20-plus yards
Isabella reeled in two of three targets for 30 yards during Sunday's 30-10 road victory against the Jets.
Analysis: Isabella's long reception went for 24 yards, which was the sixth-longest play for the Cardinals on the day. After getting blanked in the season opener, he's averaged exactly three targets per game, with three of them resulting in 20 or more yards. Aside from those grabs, though, Isabella has managed 37 yards from scrimmage on eight touches. Considering his hit-or-miss status, it's difficult to trust in him for output on a weekly basis.

Puts up dud Sunday
Isabella recorded two catches (on three targets) for three yards during Sunday's 31-21 defeat at Carolina.
Analysis: After showing out with a combined 6-114-2 line on six targets between Weeks 2 and 3, Isabella put up a dud Sunday, which has been the norm through the first season-plus of his career. His cause wasn't helped by the return of Christian Kirk, causing Isabella to rank fourth in offensive snap share with 42 percent. With the receiving corps seemingly healthy at the moment, Isabella will continue to be a hit-or-miss option.

Makes two TD catches
Isabella caught all four of his targets for 47 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Isabella stepped up in the absence of Christian Kirk (groin) as he finished second on the team in catches and receiving yards while grabbing touchdown passes in the first and third quarters. It was something of a surprising effort for Isabella, who had just one touchdown to his name heading into the game. The second-year wideout racked up 67 yards a week ago and seems to be finding a niche for himself in Arizona's pass-happy offense. It will be interesting to see how the targets are distributed…read more

In line for more work
Isabella is poised for a bigger workload with Christian Kirk (groin) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Isabella has earned exactly 14 offensive plays in both of Arizona's first two games of the season, falling short of a 20-percent snap share each time. Following word that Kirk is sidelined this weekend, his 69-percent share has been cleared for the likes of Isabella and KeeSean Johnson to work with DeAndre Hopkins and Larry Fitzgerald in three-wide sets. While Johnson is set to make his season debut Sunday after spending time on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Isabella is coming off a Week 2…read more

Records 67 yards in win
Isabella caught both targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 30-15 win over Washington.
Analysis: After finishing Week 1 without a target, Isabella bounced back and caught passes of 54 and 13 yards against the Football Team. However, he played just 18 percent of the offensive snaps as the clear No. 4 receiver behind DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk and Larry Fitzgerald. Isabella's speed (4.31 40-yard dash) makes him a big play waiting to happen, though, so he should be on fantasy radars in case a starter goes down.

Logs limited snaps Week 1
Isabella played 14 of 82 offensive snaps (17 percent) but wasn't targeted during Sunday's 24-20 win at San Francisco.
Analysis: The Cardinals operated primarily with 12 personnel, playing tight ends Dan Arnold 45 snaps on offense and Maxx Williams 43. As a result, Isabella wasn't given much opportunity behind the top wide receiver trio of DeAndre Hopkins, Larry Fitzgerald and Christian Kirk. And despite Isabella being listed as both the No. 1 kick and punt returner on the team's unofficial depth chart, Chase Edmonds and Kirk played those roles, respectively, Week 1. Due to all the impediments to production, Isabella may…read more

Expects to see slot work
Isabella expects to line up in the slot in 2020, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Isabella did little as a rookie in 2019 despite suiting up for 15 games. He managed to flash the 4.31 speed that made him a second-round pick in the form of an 88-yard touchdown Week 9 and a 55-yard catch Week 10, but those two plays accounted for most of his rookie production. Consistent reps out of the slot could provide Isabella the path he needs for playing time Year 2, but his upside will nonetheless be capped behind DeAndre Hopkins, Larry Fitzgerald and Christian Kirk.

Does little as rookie
Isabella hauled in nine of 13 passes for 189 yards and one touchdown in 15 games during the 2019 season.
Analysis: A 2019 second-rounder, Isabella show off his game-breaking ability twice as a rookie, posting an 88-yard TD in Week 9 and a 55-yard grab Week 10. Those plays aside, he managed just 11 touches for 61 yards from scrimmage while returning five kickoffs for 105 yards. With a full offseason to develop chemistry with Kyler Murray, Isabella should have a chance to flash more often next season, especially with just two incumbent outside receivers (Trent Sherfield and Keesean Johnson) to contend with.

Minimal usage yet again
Isabella logged 10 offensive snaps and one special teams play during Sunday's 27-13 win at Seattle.
Analysis: Isabella cannot make any headway in the Cardinals offense, going without a target for the first time since Week 8 and seventh time in 14 appearances as a rookie. Garnering a reasonable snap share has been difficult to come by, as he's surpassed 30 percent on offense just twice in 2019. With one game remaining on the slate, Isabella will aim to wrap the campaign on a high note.

Gets two touches Week 15
Isabella lost one yard on his only carry and recorded a four-yard catch on his only target during Sunday's 38-24 victory over the Browns.
Analysis: Limited by a shoulder injury in practice last week, Isabella still managed to receive his usual share of offensive snaps (25 percent). However, he's been unable to strike as he did in Weeks 9 and 10, when he had an 88-yard TD and 55-yard reception, respectively. Otherwise, Isabella has managed 71 yards from scrimmage on his 11 other touches. He'll look to end his rookie season on a high note, starting with a Week 16 matchup versus a Seahawks defense that has surrendered the seventh-most catches…read more

Available Week 15
Isabella (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game versus the Browns, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Isabella boasts nice peripheral numbers (23.1 YPC and 15.4 YPT) on 12 targets to date in his career. Having said that, outside receivers in the Cardinals offense under coach Kliff Kingsbury have taken a back seat to Christian Kirk and Larry Fitzgerald. As a result, Isabella is a speculative dart, at best, against Cleveland's eighth-ranked pass defense (217.8 yards per game).

Questionable for Cleveland matchup
Isabella (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: The rookie wide receiver will carry a designation into the weekend after he was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday. A Week 15 absence wouldn't have a huge impact on Arizona's game plan, considering Isabella has maxed out at four targets (Week 11) and 26 offensive snaps (Week 10). In any case, he should be able to play.

Isabella (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Limited by shoulder injury
Isabella was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a shoulder issue.
Analysis: For the season, Isabella has delivered only eight catches for 185 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets, with the majority of the production coming on two plays: an 88-yard score in Week 9 and a 55-yard catch in Week 10. With his health compromised, Isabella is even more difficult to trust for output, especially with a matchup with the Browns' eighth-ranked pass defense (217.8 yards per game) on tap Sunday.

Tallies another reception
Isabella played 13 of 60 offensive snaps during Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Steelers, parlaying them into one catch (on one target) for five yards.
Analysis: Isabella's share of the plays on offense has ranged from 22 to 37 percent over the last five games. However, after reeling in the first six targets of his career for 174 yards and one TD, his next six targets have gone for just 2-11-0. On a positive note, if he can shake free over the last three games of the season, the rookie's blazing speed could help him add to his pair of 40-plus yard grabs to date.

No stats Sunday
Isabella was targeted once but didn't catch it during Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: After hauling in the first six targets of his career, Isabella has been quelled at every turn, recording one six-yard catch on his ensuing five targets. He still boasts a ridiculous 25.7 YPC and 16.4 YPT, fueled primarily by an 88-yard TD in Week 9 and a 55-yard connection with Kyler Murray one game later. Isabella's potential to blow up in any given contest is evident, but those deep shots haven't been hitting for the Cardinals over the past two games.

Held to one catch Sunday
Isabella gathered in one of four targets for six yards during Sunday's 36-26 loss in San Francisco.
Analysis: Prior to Sunday's performance, Isabella boasted a perfect catch rate on his six career targets, so it was only a matter of time before there was a blemish on his stat line. Still, he was unable to break free for a gain of 40-plus yards, as he had done in the Cardinals' previous two contests. With a bye week on tap, Isabella's next chance to flash his speed arrives Sunday, Dec. 1 against the Rams.

Racks up 78 yards receiving
Isabella gathered in all three of his targets for 78 yards during Sunday's 30-27 loss in Tampa Bay.
Analysis: On the first play from scrimmage of the second half, Kyler Murray connected with his fellow rookie for a 55-yard gain, marking the second game in a row that the duo hooked up on a play of at least 50 yards. On the season, Isabella has a perfect catch rate on his six targets en route to 29 yards per catch and one TD. Acting as the second outside receiver behind KeeSean Johnson, Isabella increased his share of the offensive snaps from 12 percent in Week 9 to 37 percent this past Sunday. Look for…read more
