The Arizona Cardinals are now 0-1 in the preseason after the New Orleans Saints kicked a game-winning field goal to win 16-14 in Glendale. The Saints played their starters on both sides of the ball to begin the game with the offensive unit of Derek Carr, Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave and co. going out for two series.
The only offensive starter who played for Arizona today was highly-touted rookie WR Marvin Harrison Jr.. However, Harrison was only on the field for three plays and didn’t have a target.
These Cardinals’ starters today were highlighted by quarterback Desmond Ridder, who played the entire first half, while Clayton Tune played the second half as the Cardinals try to determine who will be their backup quarterback behind Kyler Murray, who is not playing this preseason. These were the rest of the starters, as Arizona chose to rest pretty much all starters on both sides of the ball: Defense: – Darius Robinson – Roy Lopez – L.J.
Collier – Jesse Luketa – Owen Pappoe – Krys Barnes – Victor Dimukeje – Starling Thomas V – Dadrion Taylor-Demerson – Joey Blount – Divaad Wilson — Tyler Drake (@Tdrake4sports) August 11, 2024 Key Stats Ridder struggled during his five drives tonight, completing 4-of-9 passes for 43 yards, but did rush five times for a halftime team-high 39 yards. Tune, on the other hand, looked like a completely different quarterback from his rookie season last year, showing great accuracy on the majority of his throws, finishing with 163.
