The Arizona Cardinals announced on May 27 their finalized 2026 preseason schedule, which includes four games and participation in the Hall of Fame game against the Carolina Panthers on Aug. 8.
The Cardinals will travel to Las Vegas to face the Raiders on Aug. 13, followed by their only home preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys at State Farm Stadium on Aug. 22. The team will conclude its preseason with a matchup against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Aug. 28.
While the Hall of Fame game will be nationally televised, local fans can watch other preseason games through Arizona’s Family stations, KOLD News 13 in Tucson, and Arizona’s Family Sports for Northern Arizona, Yuma, and Albuquerque viewers. The announcement also highlighted that tickets for the upcoming season are available for purchase.
As part of an eventful week in Canton for Larry Fitzgerald’s induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, head coach Mike LaFleur said he “loved it” when asked about opening training camp earlier to prepare for the outing against the Panthers. The Raiders and Cowboys are both scheduled as regular season opponents as well; this marks a return visit from Dallas since their last meeting at State Farm Stadium in 2023.
For their final preseason contest, the Cardinals will hold joint practices with Green Bay before facing former head coach Jonathan Gannon—now defensive coordinator for the Packers—and marking a first coaching matchup between brothers Matt and Mike LaFleur. The team’s detailed schedule lists matchups: Panthers (Aug. 8), Raiders (Aug. 13), Cowboys (Aug. 22), and Packers (Aug. 28).
The Arizona Cardinals are a professional football team based in Glendale serving greater Phoenix as part of the NFC West division; they stand as one of America’s oldest continuously operating franchises and captured an NFC championship in 2008, according to the official website.
