How Far Will Cardinals Travel Next Season?
ARIZONA — The Arizona Cardinals – along with the rest of the league – are set to learn their full 2024 NFL schedule later this evening.
Earlier, the NFL revealed their international slate of games, which didn’t feature Arizona despite two possibilities in Munich/London for their road matchups against the Carolina Panthers and Minnesota Vikings, respectively.
The Cardinals already know their opponents both on the road and home, it’s just a matter of connecting the when to the who and where.
Home: Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, New England Patriots, New York Jets, Washington Commanders, Los Angeles Chargers, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks
Away: Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Carolina Panthers, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks
