The Minnesota Vikings take on the Arizona Cardinals this Saturday in the third and most important preseason game of the year. Who are three Cardinals players that could help the Vikings out in 2019?

The Minnesota Vikings will defend their undefeated preseason record against the Arizona Cardinals at home in a rare Saturday game with kickoff at 12 p.m. CT.

The Vikings, while undefeated in the preseason so far, have shown some cracks. They’ve given up some big chunks of yardage on the ground, especially up the middle. That has a lot to do without having their two big guys in the starting lineup.

Minnesota’s special teams is also in flux. They still don’t seem sure about who their punt returner will be and their coverage on both kicks and punts has been subpar.

The Cardinals aren’t nearly as talented a team as the Vikings are, but they do have some good players on their squad. Who are three of Arizona’s players that could help Minnesota out during the upcoming regular season?
