Carter had a 5-yard run, but seven other carries totaled only five yards. He added 19 yards on five receptions. Demercado played as much as he did because of his ability as a pass protector. The running backs totaled 29 yards on 15 attempts.

We are through two weeks into preseason, and the Arizona Cardinals are sitting at an even 1-1 record after their loss to the Denver Broncos. There were certainly players last week who stood out, like Emari Demercado and Jacoby Brissett.

The Arizona Cardinals lost their second preseason game Saturday night, a 27-7 defeat to the Denver Broncos in which they allowed 562 yards and only gained 135. They didn't play any of their starters expect for rookie cornerback Will Johnson and new linebacker Akeem Davis-Gaither.
