The Arizona Cardinals and Tennessee Titans held a joint practice Wednesday in Nashville, changing things up from the day-to-day monotony of practicing against their own teammates.
The two teams face one another Saturday night in their final preseason game and did some competitive one-on-one work and some 11-on-11 in a two-minute drill.
There were a few big plays made by the Cardinals in the practice.
