Cardinals face 5 of NFL’s best edge defenders in 2023, including top 3

The Cardinals will face 5 of the NFL’s best pass rushers in 6 games in 2023, including Nick Bosa twice.

The Arizona Cardinals do not have a premier pass rusher on their team. They will rely on the development of young players on the edge — former inside linebacker Zaven Collins, rookie BJ Ojulari and 2022 third-round picks Cameron Thomas and Myjai Sanders.

While nobody on the Cardinals is considered a premier edge defender, they will face many good ones as opponents.

Of the top 11 edge defenders in the league as ranked by Touchdown Wire’s Doug Farrar, the Cardinals will face five, including the top three.
