Here is how the Arizona Cardinals’ roster looks after the team’s cuts to get down to 53 players heading into Week 1 of the NFL regular season.
The team currently has 52 players on the roster after placing Malcolm Butler on the reserve/retired list and could add a veteran cornerback to help mitigate his loss.
Offensive lineman Justin Pugh and cornerback Robert Alford are on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, so the team will also have to make room for them when they return.
Arizona opens the season on Sept. 12 on the road against the Tennessee Titans.
