The Arizona Cardinals have had a busy offseason. They re-signed, signed in free agency or traded for a total of 19 players by the end of April. On top of that picked 12 players in the 2024 NFL draft.

Head coach Jonathan Gannon prepares for his second season leading the team. The Cardinals finished the 2023 season 4-13 under him, so there is plenty of room to improve. The team should have the benefit quarterback Kyler Murray to start the 2024 season. He missed the first nine games of last season while recovering from a torn ACL, which required surgery at the end of the 2022 season.

Now, their attention turns toward offseason key dates, camps, the schedule release and more. Here’s what you need to know about the Cardinals’ offseason and what’s next.

The Cardinals typically start camp at State Farm Stadium in the final week of July. Dates should be known by mid-May.

When will Cardinals make 53-man roster cuts?

Those typically happen over the final two weeks in August as teams pare down from 90 to 53 players, after training camp practices and preseason games.
