The Arizona Cardinals visit the Cincinnati Bengals in each team’s preseason opener in 2022. Friday’s kickoff is 7:30 p.m. at Paycor Stadium, airing only regionally for both teams in their home markets. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Cardinals vs. Bengals odds, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.
The Cardinals play for the 1st time since their embarrassing 1st-round playoff loss to the Los Angeles Rams and face the Bengals, the defending AFC champions. It is only the 2nd time the teams have played in the preseason with the first matchup in 1971.
The Cardinals are not expected to play almost any starters, including QB Kyler Murray.
The Bengals will not have QB Joe Burrow starting either. He is recovering from an appendectomy.
