Feb 29, 2012, 8:38 PM | Updated: 8:42 pm

Cardinals fans will get to see their team take the field a
week earlier than normal this preseason.

The NFL announced Wednesday that the Cardinals will play the
New Orleans Saints on Sunday, August 5, in the 2012 Hall of
Fame Game in Canton, Ohio.

The Cardinals have played in the Hall of Fame Game three
other times, most recently in 1986.

The game will take place one day after the newest class of
Hall of Fame inductees, including Jack Butler, Dermontti
Dawson, Chris Doleman, Cortez Kennedy, Curtis Martin and
Willie Roaf, is enshrined.

Kickoff is scheduled for 5 p.m. Arizona time, and the game
will be televised nationally on the NFL Network.
