The Arizona Cardinals face the Baltimore Ravens at home on Sunday in Week 8 and have had a few changes to the depth chart. Some are the result of roster moves, while others are simply players moving past others and earning playing time.
Below, check out the updated depth chart entering Week 8

Quarterback
- Josh Dobbs
- Clayton Tune
This has not changed and will not change until Kyler Murray is activated from PUP.
Running back
- Emari Demercado
- Keaontay Ingram
This is new. Ingram had been ahead of Demercado all season until, in Seattle, Demercado started at running back and Ingram played only special teams.
Wide receiver
‘X’
- Marquise Brown
‘Z’
- Michael Wilson
- Zach Pascal
Slot
- Rondale Moore
- Greg Dortch
Nothing has changed here.
Tight end
- Trey McBride
- Geoff Swaim
- Elijah Higgins
- Blake Whiteheart
Zach Ertz landed on injured reserve, which means McBride is now the starter and Whiteheart gets signed from the practice squad.
Offensive line
Left tackle
- D.J. Humphries
- Carter O’Donnell
Left guard
- Elijah Wilkinson
- Dennis Daley
Center
- Hjalte Froholdt
- Trystan Colon
Right guard
- Will Hernandez
- Keith Ismael
Right tackle
- Paris Johnson
- Kelvin Beachum
This looks the same as last week, but with Wilkinson out last week, Colon, not Daley, got the start. And it appears, based on comments by head coach Jonathan Gannon, Colon worked all week as the starting left guard.
Defensive line
LDE
- Kevin Strong
- Dante Stills
NT
- Leki Fotu
- Roy Lopez
RDE
- Jonathan Ledbetter
There is nothing new here.
Outside linebacker
Strong side
- Zaven Collins
- Cameron Thomas
- BJ Ojulari
Weak side
- Dennis Gardeck
- Victor Dimukeje
- Jesse Luketa
This remains the same as it has.
Inside linebacker
Mike
- Kyzir White
- Krys Barnes
Other position
- Josh Woods
- Zeke Turner
- Owen Pappoe
Nothing has changed here.
Cornerback
One side
- Marco Wilson
- Antonio Hamilton
Other side
- Starling Thomas
- Kei’Trel Clark
- Garrett Williams
We have changes!
Thomas moved ahead of Clark, who did not play on Sunday but was healthy. Williams is listed at the back of the depth chart but was the Cardinals’ nickelback, playing in the slot against the Seahawks.
Safety
Strong safety
- Budda Baker
- Joey Blount
Free safety
- Jalen Thompson
- Andre Chachere
- Qwuantrezz Knight
The Cardinals cut K’Von Wallace, which was a surprise. Baker returns to the top of the depth chart now that he has come off injured reserve.
Specialists
Kicker
- Matt Prater
Punter/Holder
- Blake Gillikin
Long snapper
- Aaron Brewer
Kick/punt returner
- Greg Dortch
Everything here is the same.
