68 days till the Cardinals' season opener against the Bills

On a Tuesday before the 4th of July, we are one day closer to the start of the 2024 NFL regular season. In exactly three weeks, the Arizona Cardinals will report for training camp, while we still await their Week 1 road game against the Buffalo Bills.

They kick off on September 8, 68 days from now.

No. 68 on the Cardinals is currently tackle Kelvin Beachum.

He has been an impact player for the team. He is now the team’s primary backup swing tackle but has been with the team since 2020.

He signed a one-year deal in 2020, started all 16 games at right tackle and then re-signed on a two-year deal.

He started 15 games at right tackle in 2021 and then started all 17 games in 2022, but slid over to left tackle at the end of the season.

He re-signed in 2023 on a two-year again but became a backup.

He was the Cardinals’ Walter Payton Man of the Year in 2021.

We will be back tomorrow to continue the countdown.
