The Denver Broncos face off against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday morning at Empower Field at Mile High in the third and final preseason contest for both teams, before trimming rosters from 90 to 53.
After naming Bo Nix their starter earlier this week, the Broncos will take a close look at Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson on Sunday to determine who will serve as the backup quarterback in 2024.
Arizona is one of Denver’s most frequent preseason opponents, with Sunday’s matchup marking their 30th preseason showdown. The Cardinals came away with an 18-17 victory in a preseason thriller last summer, but the Broncos lead the all-time preseason series 19-10.
Denver and Arizona have played 12 times in the regular season, with Denver owning a 10-1-1 record all-time. The only time the Cardinals beat the Broncos was in 2010, a 43-13 blowout.
Denver looks to wrap up the preseason on a winning note, with building blocks in place for the future. This game will help solidify the 53-man roster, which needs to be finalized by 2 p.m. MT on Tuesday, Aug. 27.
