Cardinals’ pre-training camp 90-man roster by position

The Cardinals actually have 91 players on the roster currently. Check out all of them.

The Arizona Cardinals will open training camp on July 26. The roster is basically set. Teams have a 90-man offseason roster. The Cardinals have 91, either because center Rodney Hudson never reported for offseason activities or because of the signing of offensive lineman Haggai Ndubuisi.

The Cardinals might still make a move before camp, but below are the 91 plays on the roster right now.

It was a fantastic play in the moment and it was named the play of the year in the NFL. The play known as the “Hail Murray” has won an ESPY.

Not only was it the best play in the NFL, winning the Clutch Play of the Year award for the league, with the ESPY, it is now known as the best play in all of sports in 2020.

Here is the play again if you haven’t seen it enough.

After the Buffalo Bills took a 32-26 lead with 34 seconds left in the game on a Stefon Diggs 21-yards touchdown catch, the Cardinals got past midfield. With two seconds on the clock, quarterback Kyler Murray ran to his left, avoided a sack and threw a bomb to the end zone where receiver DeAndre Hopkins jumped up between three defenders in the end zone to catch the throw for a 43-yard touchdown.

It will go down as one of the best plays in Cardinals history and will assuredly be on highlight reels for the entire league for years to come.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins named NFC Offensive Player of the Week

He had seven catches for 127 yards and the game-winning touchdown catch with two seconds left in the Cardinals’ 32-30 win over the Bills.

Arizona Cardinals receiver DeAndre Hopkins’ touchdown catch with two seconds left in the game on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills not only got the Cardinals a win, but it also contributed to league honors.

Hopkins was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week, the league and team announced on Wednesday.

Hopkins had seven receptions for 127 yards and the game-winning 43-yards touchdown catch. It was Hopkins’ fourth career game-winning touchdown catch in the fourth quarter/OT and the first to come with under a minute left on the clock.

Hopkins is the third Cardinals offensive player of the week and fourth to earn player of the week honors this season. Quarterback Kyler Murray earned player of the week honors after Week 5 and Week 7. Safety Budda Baker earned defensive honors after Week 6.

It is the second time in Hopkins’ career he has earned the weekly honor and he is only the fourth Cardinals receiver to earn it.

Hopkins is second in the league in receiving yards and tied for second in receptions.

Cardinals’ game-winning play to DeAndre Hopkins wasn’t initially designed for him

The play is intended to catch a receiver coming across the field to make a catch and get out of bounds.

The Arizona Cardinals, quarterback Kyler Murray and receiver DeAndre Hopkins were the talk of the country after their improbable win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Murray’s deep throw to the end zone to Hopkins was a touchdown with two seconds left in the game.

Whether you call it a Hail Murray or Holy Hop or anything, that play was not actually designed to be a Hail Mary throw.

Kliff Kingsbury explained it when he spoke to reporters Monday.

“It did not (go as expected),” Kingsbury explained. “Our number one receiver that we normally hit is coming across the field, we roll out to our left and try to hit him. But we saw Hop over there and basically aid hey if you like the look on Hop, take that shot.”

The play was designed to go to Larry Fitzgerald down the field but not all the way down the field. He came from the right side of the field all the way across about halfway down the field from the line of scrimmage. If it works out right, he catches the ball and gets out of bounds with a couple of seconds left, giving Murray and the Cardinals one more play from a reasonable distance.

They have kept that play in their back pocket for a while

“We practiced that play for two years, end-of-game situations,” Kingsbury said. “It was the first time we ran it in a game.”

Perhaps the end result is the same if Murray finds Fitzgerald 20 yards down the field, but this throw was one for the ages. It was a great job of moving and eluding the rush, an amazing throw and a perfectly played catch to win the game.
