The information you need to watch, listen to or stream the Cardinals’ Week 16 matchup against the Bears.
The Arizona Cardinals (3-11) are on the road in Week 16 on Christmas Eve facing the Chicago Bears (5-9). The Cardinals have been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention and hold the third overall pick in the 2024 draft.
The Bears entered the week with the first and the fifth picks, though the fifth pick is their own.
Both have young quarterbacks (Kyler Murray for Arizona, Justin Fields for Chicago) under scrutiny regarding their futures with their teams.
Are you planning on watching or listening to the game on Sunday? The information you need is below.
The Cardinals elevated receivers Dan Chisema and Kaden Davis from the practice squad for Week 16.
The Arizona Cardinals announced a pair of roster moves on Saturday to finalize the roster for their Week 16 road game against the Chicago Bears.
They elevated receivers Dan Chisema and Kaden Davis from the practice squad to the active roster.
Both will be eligible to play and probably will be active.
Receiver Marquise Brown was ruled out with a heel injury and receiver Greg Dortch is questionable to play with a shoulder injury.
The elevation of Davis suggests that Dortch will not play. Davis can return kicks and punts, and he can play in the slot.
Chisema’s elevation is likely for special teams. Zach Pascal normally plays a lot on special teams. He might end up playing more on offense.
