## Resource

Cowboys vs. Cardinals preseason Game 2 is a HUGE opportunity for players fighting to make the 53-man roster. Jeff Cavanaugh and Jesse Holley break down the biggest roster battles to watch when the Cowboys take on the Cardinals, including the competition at wide receiver, running back and cornerback. Camden Brown is one of the hottest names coming out of the first preseason game, but Jeff and Jesse explain why he's still far from a lock and why Jonathan Mingo remains very much in the conversation. They also discuss Malik Davis, Jaden Blue, Israel Abanikanda and the crowded competition at cornerback, where several players are battling for just a few roster spots. Plus, Jeff and Jesse explain why Cowboys coaches could be evaluating players around the league as roster cuts approach — and why making the initial 53-man roster doesn't necessarily mean a player is safe. Who needs to make the biggest statement against Arizona?
