After an ugly loss to the Denver Broncos this weekend, the Arizona Cardinals have just one week until cut day. This is our latest roster projection.
The Arizona Cardinals lost their second preseason game Saturday night, a 27-7 defeat to the Denver Broncos in which they allowed 562 yards and only gained 135. They didn't play any of their starters expect for rookie cornerback Will Johnson and new linebacker Akeem Davis-Gaither.
Mustipher had six tackles with two solo that were for loss. Goodlow’s two solo tackles were both for loss. Jenkins had three assisted tackles, a half-sack and quarterback hit. Simmons had two tackles (one solo) and Barrs had a QB hit.
The Denver Broncos' second preseason game of 2025 is in the books, coming out on top vs. the Arizona Cardinals 27-7. Several Broncos transformed the hype around their training camp buzz into tangible results on both sides of the ball.
After the Cardinals tied the game at 7, the Broncos went 70 yards in eight plays with the big ones of 17 and 16 yards to Bryant and a 27-yard scoring pass to Tony Franklin on which there appeared to be miscommunication in the secondary. That drive lasted 2:39.
If Cardinals rookie defensive lineman Walter Nolen III has any hope at being ready by Week 1, coming off the PUP list this week is a good start.
Not only is Deguara a better blocker than all three of them, but he's tougher as a receiver than Krull, has shown more in the NFL than Prieskorn, and has significantly more experience than Lohner. Plus, Deguara has the versatility to play special teams and fullback to help fill in for Adkins while he misses time.
The Broncos rested most starters, but not Evan Engram, against the Cardinals. Sean Payton explained why after the game.
