The Arizona Cardinals opened the preseason at home against the Denver Broncos on Friday night. They had most of their defensive starters in the game to start.
Two starters sat out — linebacker Kyzir White and safety Budda Baker.
Both were healthy and warmed up but were held out of the game.
So who started on defense for Arizona?
- DL L.J. Collier
- DL Leki Fotu
- DL Jonathan Ledbetter
- OLB Dennis Gardeck
- OLB Zaven Collins
- ILB Josh Woods
- ILB Krys Barnes
- CB Marco Wilson
- CB Christian Matthew
- S Jalen Thompson
- S Isaiah Simmons
When they went nickel, Thompson guarded the slot, Fotu came off the field and safety JuJu Hughes came in to play Thompson’s spot.
