Going to the Game?: The Cardinals have everything you will need to knowright here. Parking, traffic, directions, and a whole lot more.
What to Watch For?: Most importantly, both Sam Bradford and Josh Rosen will see snaps against the Los Angeles Chargers. Beyond that, you’ll want to pay attention to their wide receivers and offensive line.
At receiver, it’s murky beyondLarry Fitzgerald.Brice Butleris currently slated as the No.2 guy butGreg Little,J. J. Nelson, andChristian Kirkall have a lot of upside. It’s safe to say that the preseason will definitely play a big role in who gets snaps and targets come Week 1.
On the offensive line, their starting center,A.Q. Shipley, went down with a torn ACL. Now, they’ll turn to rookieMason Coleto get the job done. Shipley was a third-round draft pick out of Michigan.
Speaking with Arizona Sports 98.7 FM, Cole revealed that he believes in himself.
“I’m confident I can do the job,” he said.
