Phoenix -- The Arizona Cardinals completed their first preseason sweep in franchise history after running the table which included dress-up games against the Baltimore Ravens, Philadelphia Eagles, Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys.
The Cardinals will now carry their off-season hype into the regular season, where they will try to reach the postseason after five years of being absent from a shot at the Super Bowl. With an improved defense and an offense which is headed by second year quarterback Kyler Murray and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, many agree Arizona has never had as high expectations as they have had before entering this season. The pre-season lived up to those expectations, especially on defense, where rookie Isaiah Simmons, whom the Cards thought wouldn't fall to eighth showed what he can add to the Cardinals defense.
Arizona did make a couple of transactions during the preseason. Byron Murphy suffered a broken foot and was placed on injured reserve. The Cardinals covered this loss by signing veteran Brandon Carr to a one year, $2.6M contract. He'll start on the outside with All-Pro Patrick Peterson. With the emergence of Isaiah Simmons, the Cardinals traded out-of-favour and former 2017 first rounder Haason Reddick to the New York Jets for their 2021 4th round selection. The Cardinals declined Reddick's fifth year option this past spring. A week later, the Cardinals offloaded that draft pick to the Las Vegas Raiders, acquiring rookie running back Lynn Bowden Jr, after a sluggish rushing performance in the pre-season by Kenyan Drake and Chase Edmonds.
