GLENDALE — The Arizona Cardinals’ starters will get their first taste of preseason action on Thursday against the Las Vegas Raiders.

As head coach Mike LaFleur put it Tuesday, “they’re all going to play.” That includes quarterback Jacoby Brissett.

As for how much, that depends on the game flow.

“They’re all going to play. We’ll have our guys out there,” LaFleur said. “It’s not going to be much.

“Could be one drive, max of two for those main guys. But they’ll be playing and they know that.”

Arizona sat its starters for the Hall of Fame Game against the Carolina Panthers last week.

That game was headlined by Carson Beck getting his first preseason start before giving way to Kedon Slovis in the second half.

How much Beck (and the rest of the QBs room) will play this week with the addition of the starters will be something to watch.
