The Arizona Cardinals will start Gardner Minshew against the Dallas Cowboys in this weekend's preseason game. That much has been announced.
Minshew has been getting plenty of first-team reps, and is at the ready for the backup role or for a starting position.

Currently, Jacoby Brissett is listed on the Cardinals depth chart as the starting quarterback, with Minshew the backup and rookie Carson Beck and Kedon Slovis battling it out for QB3. This is not to say that any of these signalcallers can slide up and down the depth chart. That is what training camp and the preseason games are for.
Minshew is expected to start and play the first half along with the remainder of the second-team offense. It will be interesting to see who plays right guard for the injured Chase Bisontis. Slovis will man the second half with some second-string guys, and then the third team will get on the field. These guys are fighting for roster spots. It is ******* umed that Minshew will come out of the halftime locker room and start the second half, then sit.
