It'll be Carson Beck vs. Kenny Pickett when Cardinals-Panthers open the NFL's exhibition season

Carson Beck will make his NFL debut as the Arizona Cardinals host Kenny Pickett and the Carolina Panthers in the NFL’s Hall of Fame Game, opening the preseason Thursday night in Canton, Ohio. Beck, a third-round pick from Miami, will be coached by Mike LaFleur and works behind veteran Jacoby Brissett, with Gardner Minshew as the backup. Pickett, a former first-rounder with Pittsburgh, has changed teams repeatedly and signed with Carolina to back up Bryce Young. The article notes that starters generally play limited minutes in preseason; Cardinals RB Jerimiyah Love (No. 3) and Panthers tackle Monroe Freeling (No. 19) are sitting out.
