Arizona Cardinals brace for a tough opener as key injuries pile up—running back depth is thin with rookie Jeremiyah Love sidelined and James Conner, Trey Benson limited in practice, leaving Tyler Allgeier and Zonovan Knight to carry the load. The tight end position is also shaky without Tip Reiman (still on PUP), whose absence last year crippled their run game. Coaches must balance player eagerness to return with long-term health, especially for veterans like Conner. On the bright side, slot cornerback Garrett Williams is cleared to practice after an Achilles tear, adding crucial physicality and smarts to a defense already bolstered by Sean Murphy-Bunting. At QB, Jacoby Brissett sits out, with Gardner Minshew starting and Kedon Slovis expected to follow; Carson Beck, recovering from a rib injury, may see some action in the final preseason game.
