The Arizona Cardinals will face the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8 on the road. They released a new deph chart, and there were some changes. Yes, there were roster changes, but the formation of the offensive depth chart shifted.
With Marvin Harrison traded and Jalen Brooks now on injured reserve, the Cardinals now have shifted their starting lineup to 12 personnel, with two receivers and two tight ends. Previously, the depth chart was listed with three starting receivers and one starting tight end.
That has led to a position shift for the receivers. Let’s have a look at the Cardinals’ Week 8 depth chart.
