2019 Cardinals countdown: 96 days until season opener

There are now 96 days remaining until the Arizona Cardinals open the season in Week 1, hosting the Detroit Lions at State Farm Stadium. We have multiple stats with the No. 96.

Three players scored 96 career points as members of the Cardinals.

Quarterback Jim Hart had 16 career rushing touchdowns. Halfback Prentiss Gautt played for the Cardinals from 1961-1967 and had 16 total touchdowns for 96 points. He rushed four 10 and caught six. Halfback Joe Childress, who played for the Cardinals from 1956-1965, also had 16 career touchdowns for 96 points. He rushed for three and scored 13 receiving touchdowns.

The other stat of 96 is the 96-catch season Larry Fitzgerald had in 2008, the season the Cardinals went to the Super Bowl. Those 96 catches went for 1,431 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns.
