Quarterback
Kyler Murray, 78
Murray again played every snap, although he did not take every snap, as Eno Benjamin did have one run off a direct snap.
Running back
Eno Benjamin, 58; Darrel Williams, 21
Rookie Keaontay Ingram did not play on offense with the return of Williams to the lineup. There was one play with both Benjamin and Williams on the field.
Wide receiver
DeAndre Hopkins, 78; Rondale Moore, 77; A.J. Green, 37; Greg Dortch, 20; Robbie Anderson, 7
It is a surprise to see Green play so much after getting zero snaps in Week 7. Basically, Hopkins and Moore never leave the field and then the Cardinals attempt to mix and match the other three.
Anderson’s role decreased, although he was targeted three times in those seven snaps.
Tight end
Zach Ertz, 69; Trey McBride, 20; Stephen Anderson, 3
As has been the trend all season, Ertz rarely comes off the field and McBride has a specific role. He struggled again, picking up two consecutive holding penalties in one possession in the second half.
Offensive line
Josh Jones, 78; Cody Ford, 78; Billy Price, 78; Will Hernandez, 78; Kelvin Beachum, 78
In a nice change, no one got hurt so none of the linemen ever had to come out of the game.
