The Arizona Cardinals face the Kansas City Chiefs in their second preseason tilt Saturday night at home.
They won their preseason opener, an 18-17 last-second victory over the Denver Broncos.
Preseason games are more about individual play than overall outcome, so here are a few players to focus on when the Cardinals play this evening.

C Hjalte Froholdt
Froholdt looked good in limited snaps as the starting center. Can he continue to do so?
RB Keaontay Ingram
Ingram didn’t play last week but Stevie Scott was released without appearing a game, suggesting Ingram could return. Corey Clement got the start last week. Ingram hasn’t shown much this offseason because of the injury.
CB Kei'Trel Clark
Clark made a few plays and has been impressive in training camp. Let’s see if he can do it against the Chiefs’ starters and continue to push for the starting job.
S Jalen Thompson
Thompson is now the primary slot defender and could line up opposite Travis Kelce, where Isaiah Simmons lined up last year and was toasted.
OLB Zaven Collins
Collins looked good on the edge in his seven defensive snaps last week. Let’s see if he can follow that up with another strong performance.
OL Josh Jones
Jones played right tackle on the second-team offense and could have had a better game.
Perhaps he will get the start at left tackle like Kelvin Beachum did last week.
