The NFL, perhaps more than any other professional sports league, is built by its little moments — the numerous individual tiles inside the mosaic of 60 minutes of Sunday football.
The little moment that might have stood out the brightest from the Arizona Cardinals' 26-14 upset win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday wasn't necessarily Jeremiyah Love's or Trey McBride's first touchdowns of the year.
It might not have even been the sight of new head coach Mike LaFleur, fighting off emotion on the sideline while calling for victory formation, as he became the first non-interim Cardinals coach to win his first game since Don Coryell did so in 1973.
It was a moment following a poor play in the fourth quarter. With under five minutes to play, a third-and-short pass play saw QB Jacoby Brissett run out of both time and room, forcing him out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage.
As Brissett walked off the field, LaFleur — animatedly — took responsibility, offering a "my bad" to his quarterback.

The Seattle Seahawks are 1-0, so it's time to start scouting their next opponent.
The Arizona Cardinals shocked the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1 with a 26-14 win in which Mike LaFleur became the franchise's first non-interim head coach to win their first game in charge. The matchup was projected as one of the opening week's most lopsided in favor of Jim Harbaugh and Los Angeles, who were coming off an 11-6 record in 2025. Los Angeles made the playoffs and lost to the eventual AFC champion New England Patriots in the Wild Card round, albeit without either of their starting offensive tackles—Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt—who were both expected to boost the offense upon their return this season. Arizona's defense had other ideas, and became one of the biggest surprises of any unit across Week 1's Sunday slate, while their offense simply looked more talented and outplayed LA with complementary football. That's what the Seahawks will be looking for in Week 2.
The Cardinals defense played with an energy that stifled Justin Herbert and new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who only held the ball for 51 plays and 22:29. Arizona ran 21 more plays and had the ball for 15:02 more of the game (more than an entire quarter?!) When watching this game, the attitude from Arizona's defense seemed to disregard the stature of its opponent. LaFleur retained defensive coordinator Nick Rallis, who Phoenix-based sports radio host John Gambadoro credits for helping set the temperature.
It's easy to see Rallis' results. The intensity of the defense that showed up on tape is just as evident on paper. His Cardinals defense ranks second to last in blitz rate so far this season, yet they held McDaniel and Herbert to a measly 2-for-8 on third downs and 0-for-3 on fourth downs. Their front seven was far more formidable than the Chargers on the day, producing 17 pressures on 55 snaps while LA could only muster 12 on 75 opportunities. On the flipside, the Cardinals' offensive line has been projected as their downfall this season. The Seahawks have a clear opportunity to establish their presence as a physically dominant team if they kill the Cardinals momentum. This will be the game for elite run blockers like AJ Barner and run stoppers like Uchenna Nwosu to put the new age film community on watch.
Offensive talent is far from the problem in Arizona. Trey McBride is the best tight end in football. They've got two running backs in Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier who can both be a problem for any team. Marvin Harrison Jr. was a matchup nightmare against the Seahawks last season. In Week 3, he had one of the best battles against Devon Witherspoon and Riq Woolen of any wide receiver all year. When partnered with a seasoned veteran quarterback with a quick release, they were able to make life easy on their OL. Jacoby Brissett looked like at least an average starting QB, completing 27/37 passes for a respectable 73.0% completion rate while taking only 1 sack on 39 dropbacks. Loo

UPDATE: 9:38 a.m. Saturday
A lot has happened since our early posting this week. The biggest injury news is the meniscus tear suffered by the No. 1 tight end, the Raiders' Brock Bowers. He will miss Week 1, and at least a couple of weeks after that.
The season-opening game proved painful for New England star receiver A.J. Brown. He's now on injured reserve.with a high-ankle sprain that will sideline him at least a month.
Several questionable players are more likely to play this week. Arizona rookie RB Jeremiyah Love and Las Vegas sophomore Ashton Jeanty are now expected to start, as is Chicago wideout Rome Odunze. And while Giants WR Malik Nabers is playing it coy, he should be on the field tomorrow night against Dallas.
Cooper Rush will now quarterback Atlanta thanks to injuries to Michael Penix and Tua Tagovailoa. That might turn out to be good news for top Falcons performers Drake London, Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts.

#raiders

All signs appear to be pointing up for Jeremiyah Love ahead of Week 1.
The Arizona Cardinals rookie running back has participated in all three practice sessions this week, as he is now four weeks removed from suffering a high-ankle sprain on his left leg against the Las Vegas Raiders in preseason.
While Love was officially listed as limited on the first two days of practice this week, he did not appear to have any restrictions during the portions open to media. During those sessions, Love was able to cut off his injured ankle at speed, and participated in full-team jog-throughs, alternating with veteran running back Tyler Allgeier.
When asked before practice on Friday, Sept. 11, head coach Mike LaFleur did not commit to Love's status for Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
"Still got another good day of work today to figure that out," LaFleur said. "But he's trending well."

#love #lafleur #back

The chances of Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love making his NFL debut against the Chargers on Sunday are looking pretty strong.
Head coach Mike LaFleur said at a press conference that Love is "trending well" ahead of the team's final practice of the week. Love injured his ankle in the team's first preseason game and has been a limited participant in practice this week. The Cardinals will issue their last injury report after Friday's practice.
Love said on Thursday that he will "fight my hardest to be out there every game this season," but said he did not know where that would happen this weekend.
The Cardinals made Love the third overall pick in this year's draft. He'll share running back duties with Tyler Allgeier to kick off his time in the league.

Jeremiyah Love wants to play. He isn't saying if he will play.
"If they want to put me out there, I'm going to go out and play, whether my ankle feels 100 percent, 50 percent, 70 percent," Love said, via Darren Urban of the team website. "I just want to play football. I'll fight my hardest to be out there every game this season."
The rookie running back injured his ankle in an Aug. 13 preseason game against the Raiders. It was diagnosed as a high-ankle sprain, and he only returned to practice this week.
Love was limited again Thursday.
"I have been itching to get back out there ever since I injured my ankle," Love said.

Why it Matters: Love is expected to play in the season opener, but the rookie could have his snaps limited to some degree. That being said, Love's potential to produce big plays in the running game and as a receiver out of the backfield make him tough to leave on the bench.

The running back landscape hasn't changed too drastically, though there are a few things to consider from the offseason. Jeremiyah Love was the top back taken off the board in the 2026 NFL Draft to the Arizona Cardinals. We saw a couple big-name free agents land in favorable spots with Kenneth Walker III joining the Chiefs and Travis Etienne Jr. in New Orleans.

The Arizona Cardinals will play the Los Angeles Chargers this weekend to open the season. One big question facing them is whether rookie Jeremiyah Love will be able to play, as he has been dealing with a high ankle sprain.
There was good news on Monday.
Head coach Mike LaFleur expressed optimism that Love would be able to play, saying, "I feel good," when asked if he was optimistic that Love has a chance to play.
LaFleur tempered expectations a little, though.
"He was out there moving around today," he said. "We'll see on Wednesday. I will have a better idea for all those guys that I know you guys are going to ask about on Wednesday."

The Arizona Cardinals perhaps will have a sneaky good offense in 2026. They have the skill players with running backs Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier, receivers Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson, and tight end Trey McBride. They are not expected to be good defensively.
As such, it is no surprise that the Cardinals do not make the NFL.com list of the top 10 defenses entering 2026.

You're heading into your draft this weekend and you need all the advice you can get. That's where we come in. Yahoo fantasy football ******* yst Joel Smyth joined the Yahoo Discord channel for an AMA on Wednesday afternoon. He answered questions pertaining to upcoming drafts. Check out the recap below.
Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2026 NFL season
Question: What RB has a favorable home stretch the last six games?
Smyth: A few that I know. Bijan Robinson, whole second half of the season is a crazy-good schedule from what it looks like right now, and Jeremiyah Love's playoff schedule as well. Saquon Barkley's up until the playoffs is another to add to Jonathan Taylor, some of the top RBs, which is nice. Hopefully those extremes stick!
Question: Who's a better start in the flex spot in a Full-PPR league: Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd or ******* ans WR Carnell Tate?

#fantasy #season #schedule #joel

Progress isn't linear for NFL players. Some enter the league as stars. Many more need time to develop after jumping from the college ranks to test themselves against some of the world's best athletes.
That makes it difficult to tell which talented players are ready to break out and which will leave vast reserves of potential untapped. But every team has at least one candidate ready to take things to the next level and establish themselves. For some, that will be a rookie or two who can handle the leap to playing on Sundays. Others will see veterans emerge from depth roles into surefire starting positions. And some starters will rise to Pro Bowl or All-Pro levels, serving as a foundation for a Super Bowl contender.
Who fits that bill for every team in the NFL? Let's break it down, running through the list in alphabetical order.
Jeremiyah Love is the obvious answer, but Arizona's running back depth may prevent him from having the same kind of impact he had at Notre Dame. The Cardinals' passing defense, however, ranked just 26th in expected points added (EPA) allowed in 2025.
Burke wasn't part of the problem; he worked his way into the starting lineup and recorded a 78.4 passer rating allowed in coverage. If he can showcase steady growth after an overlooked rookie campaign, he could wind up with Pro Bowl hype.

#team #rookie #depth #starting

For being the No. 3 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft, there are a whole lot of fantasy football questions surrounding rookie running back Jeremiyah Love. Will free agent battering ram Tyler Allgeier cut into his workload, especially around the goal line? Are the Cardinals going to roll the dice with rookie Carson Beck at quarterback some point, potentially slowing down the offense? And most importantly, how much do we think the high ankle sprain Love suffered in the preseason is going to linger throughout the rest of the year?
Love was incredible at Notre Dame, finishing with 1,600 rushing and receiving yards and 21 touchdowns last season, and running backs who go in the top 10 generally have high hit rates. Despite the questions, there's a lot to like. Whether it's enough to draft him will come down to your leaguemates and if someone wants to reach for the talented rookie.
Here's what to know about Jeremiyah Love when it comes to fantasy football:

#draft #fantasy #questions

Just because an NFL player is injured and will be on the shelf -- for a little (or longer) while -- doesn't mean you should completely avoid him in fantasy football.
This is especially true if you have some IR spots that can be filled with a player who is on the actual injured reserve list. Sometimes, the best strategy with a talented player like that is to wait until the later rounds when that player is overlooked and to ***** them with a late pick.
In this case, we're ranking the names who could be noteworthy IR stashes in your draft. Let's run through some of them and rank them based on priority:
Obviously, rookie Jadarian Price is going to handle a lot of work from the get-go, and we may see more George Holani than we think. But Charbonnet is coming back from a torn ACL in the playoffs, and when he does return, it's possible he'll get more work than you think he might. I'd take him late and stash him in the hopes that he's a factor by the middle of the season.
Jeremiyah Love is injured and a rookie. Tyler Allgeier will have a role. And Conner? The veteran with a foot injury will miss at least the first four games. Given some of the uncertainty here, I'd recommend a stash in the hopes that he's a factor in the offense sometime in October or November.

#sometimes

When the Arizona Cardinals announced their 53-man roster on Sunday, Aug. 30, it laid bare the cracks in this team's foundation. At multiple key spots, the Cardinals are short on both impact starters and reliable depth pieces.
That much, though, was already known. What's new is the 34 players whom the Cardinals cut, along with two minor trades and four injury designations. Each move played a part in carving the group of 53 players that will face the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1 on Sept. 13 — although waiver claims could tweak the picture this week.
For now, here are five key takeaways from the roster release.
The biggest news of the day came when the Cardinals placed veteran running back James Conner on injured reserve, ruling him out of the first four games. That much, though, has little to do with Jeremiyah Love. Conner didn't participate in 11-on-11 drills for all of camp, and hadn't practiced at all over the past week. His progression has simply taken longer than expected.
The notable part, for Love, is that the Cardinals opted to keep just three running backs in Conner's absence, as they traded away Corey Kiner and released Evan Hull.

#though

To many, this year's Arizona Cardinals will be in contention for the No. 1 overall pick in the 2027 NFL Draft. They don't really have a set quarterback, much of the roster remains a work in progress, and it sure feels like a lot will be on rookie tailback Jeremiyah Love's shoulders. In other words, many think the 2026 version of the team will be absolutely terrible. By direct contrast, no one is necessarily anointing the Green Bay Packers as a bona fide Super Bowl heavyweight, but they do have playoff-caliber expectations.
At the very least, the green and gold are expected to be solid and relevant well into December.
That's what made the news that the seemingly lowly Cardinals dominated the Packers in two-minute drill sessions during a joint practice on Wednesday kind of surprising. Yes, it's a practice setting where the point is to learn, not to garner perfect results on every repetition.
But still, it's notable that the Cardinals had their way with the Packers, in at least one part of practice, in any fashion. Maybe they're not as bad as some think they are? (OK, they're probably still terrible.)
One of the more notable segments of this practice sequence came on a lovely toe-tap touchdown for Marvin Harrison Jr. It's been tough sledding for Harrison Jr. thus far in his NFL career, particularly from a confidence standpoint, given the greatness many thought would come out of him after his days at Ohio State.

A week has passed since our last look at the NFC, and while the top order hasn't shifted much, several injury situations and one big contract now look different as the NFL's Week 1 kickoff is on the horizon.
Vita Vea ended his hold-in with a new deal in Tampa Bay. Coby Bryant's timeline got worse in Chicago. Malik Nabers took live reps for the first time since tearing his ACL.

#week #since #vita #tampa

The Arizona Cardinals hit the practice field in Tempe on Monday to get ready for their final preseason game, coming on Friday on the road against the Green Bay Packers. They have a few injuries to know about, and head coach Mike LaFleur gave some updates.
Running back Jeremiyah Love, who has a high ankle sprain, will not be doing any on-field work this week. He is "doing well, progressing well and kind of in the next phase of it."
Quarterback Carson Beck, dealing with a rib injury, didn't practice on Monday. "There is a chance" he could play in the preseason finale.
Safety Rabbit Taylor-Demerson, who injured his ribs on Saturday, is day-to-day.
Punter Blake Gillikin suffered a groin injury pregame on Saturday and didn't punt in the game. "He's good," LaFleur said. He isn't concerned about any long-term injury, but he won't punt this week. We will see if they sign a punter on Tuesday or whether kicker Chad Ryland handles punting duties on Friday.

Over the past two seasons, Marvin Harrison Jr. has been a name that plenty of NFL fans have paid attention to. Naturally so, as the Arizona Cardinals selected him fourth overall in 2024. It is now the dawn of the 2026 season, and Harrison Jr. still hasn't proven why he was picked that high. He's dealt with injuries, which makes it tough to gain traction. Not only that, but he's also had multiple quarterbacks.
Harrison Jr. has shown flashes, but he has struggled to stay consistent. A player with that talent, though, is destined to break out at some point. Over training camp, he has looked fantastic, no matter who is throwing to him. He's finally starting to develop the confidence that he's been missing over the first couple of seasons of his career.
Marvin Harrison Jr. practice highlights for the timeline.
Did not see Trey Benson, Jeremiyah Love or Sean Murphy-Bunting during the open portion of practice.

The NFL is back to monopolize our minds and, in some cases, our souls. There's really no such thing as an offseason for football in America, but if you have managed to avoid the NFL machine over the past six months, I'm here to help.
The preseason is the land of possibilities, ripe territory for hot takes and predictions. None of us have any idea what will actually unfold over the next six months. If most of these preseason predictions are destined to age poorly, we should at least get a solid playlist out of it. So, I took it upon myself to project all 32 teams' definitive theme songs for the 2026 NFL season.
Consider this your guide — a cheat sheet when you need a talking point at your next watch party — before the 2026 regular-season opener between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 9. Check it out below.
The Cardinals are in denial, and the kids are suffering. Marvin Harrison Jr. has been miserable since arriving in Arizona. Trey McBride lashed out at Cardinals fans, or the lack thereof, and later retracted his criticism. We'll see what happens with rookie sensation Jeremiyah Love, but he's already hurt. In the daunting NFC West, Arizona will string its marriage of convenience with Jacoby Brissett along for one more season, and we'll see what happens in the 2027 NFL Draft.
The Falcons boast Bijan Robinson, Drake London, and Kyle Pitts Sr., an extremely talented group of offensive weapons. But with Michael Penix Jr. or Tua Tagovailoa at quarterback, it won't matter in the end. It's really sad to watch Penix Jr. and Tagovailoa's bodies betray them. It also really stinks to consider Atlanta wasting another talented roster in the quarterback wilderness and missing the playoffs for a ninth straight season.

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Cardinals fans and fans across the country.
We are onto the Dallas Cowboys this evening, with an eye towards joint practices next week with the Green Bay Packers, before the Arizona Cardinals close the preseason with a matchup with the Packers.
One player we will not see, unless something changes for joint practices next week is rookie running back Jeremiyah Love.
So I asked the question: how did you feel about the Jeremiyah Love injury?
The majority answered, it was just an unfortunate play.

#fans #practices #week

The Arizona Cardinals have seen a couple of their rookies, Carson Beck and Jeremiyah Love, shine so far in the preseason. Unfortunately, both have gotten banged up in their preseason action.
Beck suffered a minor rib injury in the Pro Football Hall of Fame game that caused him to miss the team's second preseason contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. Meanwhile, Love played against the Raiders but left with a minor ankle injury that will keep him out of Saturday's game against the Cowboys.
Those rookie injuries aren't the only ones with which the Cardinals are dealing. The team's second-round pick, offensive lineman Chase Bisontis, suffered a torn MCL against the Raiders and may miss his rookie season because of it.
With that in mind, it's worth wondering exactly how much the Cardinals will play their starters as the preseason progresses. It's also worth wondering whether the Cowboys will give their starters any action after relying on Joe Milton and the team's backups in their preseason opener against the Seattle Seahawks.
Here's what to know about the Cowboys vs. Cardinals preseason game and how to watch it.

The Cardinals will be short-handed when they take the field for Week 2 of the preseason.
Arizona entered the preliminary season with high hopes, buoyed by newcomer Jeremiyah Love's dancing feet and an impressive Hall of Fame Game performance by Carson Beck.
Things have soured for Arizona in recent weeks, however. Beck is day-to-day with a rib injury, while Love will miss the remainder of preseason due to a high ankle sprain. Fellow first-years Chase Bisontis and Kaleb Proctor suffered season-ending injuries, adding to the heartbreak.
Mike LaFleur's side will look for signs of positivity when it takes on the Cowboys — and their high-profile rookie, Caleb Downs — in Week 2. Dallas secured a 17-7 win over the Seahawks in Week 1, benefitting from strong displays by Joe Milton III, Sam Howell and Camden Brown.

The Arizona Cardinals have two preseason games remaining and less than two weeks to make final roster decisions. At many positions, certain jobs are set. Others have intriguing battles for the back end of the depth chart.
At running back, three spots seem secure — rookie Jeremiyah Love, free agent Tyler Allgeier and veteran James Conner.
Assuming the Cardinals keep a fourth running back, that competition is intriguing. Three guys are battling for one spot.
Edward Hull and newly signed Tre Stewart are probably not likely to be in the mix, so we simply acknowledge them.
The three battling for one spot are Trey Benson, Bam Knight and Corey Kiner.

How promising is the Arizona Cardinals' future? According to ESPN's future power rankings, it isn't very promising.
Looking ahead to the 2027-2029 seasons and grading teams by their situations at quarterback, the rest of the roster, their front office and their coaching staff, the Cardinals come in dead last at No. 32.
Their quarterback situation is their lowest percentage at 63, which falls into the very bad range. All other categories range from 70.75 to 72.75, barely average.
Yes, the Cardinals have some young offensive talent in running back Jeremiyah Love, tight end Trey McBride and receivers Michael Wilson and Marvin Harrison Jr. However, the QB situation dampens that excitement. Their fortunes improve significantly if they land a top rookie quarterback in 2027 or if Carson Beck proves to be a franchise guy.
Defensively, Walter Nolen and Will Johnson are the only young guys to build with. Josh Sweat and Budda Baker are aging.

The Arizona Cardinals beat the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday 27-14 in preseason action. The starters played only one series, and two of the Cardinals' top draft picks got hurt.
Offensive lineman Chase Bisontis, their second-round pick, suffered a season-ending knee injury, tearing his MCL. Running back Jeremiyah Love, the No. 3 pick in the draft, hurt his ankle and hopefully will be ready to play in the season opener. However, there is a bit of a story as to how we got to that point of information.

(10:59) Jeremiyah Love's injury

#cardinals #starters #season #arizona

Jeremiyah Love carried a hefty workload at running back during his NFL debut in the preseason opener for the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday. Now, it appears both he and the franchise may come to regret that.
Love, who was the third overall draft pick this past offseason, joined a talented running back room for the Cardinals, so it makes sense that the team would want to see him tossed into game reps to see how he will compete. And in the preseason opener against the Raiders, he saw 11 carries for 58 yards and three receptions for 14 yards.
But he ended up suffering an injury in that game, which reports now indicate is a high-ankle sprain that makes a preseason return "unlikely," according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. The franchise is also "hoping" he can return for the regular-season opener on September 13.
After missing the Hall of Fame game the week prior, Love was one of the bright spots for Arizona against Las Vegas – making multiple standout plays and contributing on three separate scoring drives. The performance suggests that he'll step up and play a major role for the Cardinals this season.
But now, he'll need to spend the preseason resting up to make sure that happens, which should open some **** e for returning veteran James Conner and free-agent acquisition Tyler Allegier to get extra reps over the final two preseason outings. The franchise also signed second-year free agent Tre Stewart on Saturday after the severity of the injury became apparent.

#franchise #game #arizona #makes

It wasn't the news that the Arizona Cardinals wanted to hear, running back Jeremiyah Love, the star taken No. 3 overall out of Notre Dame may miss the rest of the preseason after suffering an ankle injury during Thursday's victory over the Oakland Raiders according to Adam Schefter.
The potential starter had a fantastic first showing, rushing for 58-yards on 11 carries with three catches for 14-yards. As with all preseason games, the top players don't get much run, so this was just a taste of what Love can do. Every trait that you want to see from a running back is there, as he used his spin move that wowed social media.
You have to wonder if the Cardinals made the right choice by sitting Love for its first preseason game, as head coach Mike LaFleur said following the contest that he is "a rookie that hadn't played much." Unfortunately, that is going to be the case for the next few weeks, as Love will be looked at again next week and then re-evaluated. The Cardinals are hopeful that he'll be ready to go for the season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers.
