The Arizona Cardinals did not make the Super Bowl. They didn’t make the postseason. The two teams in Super Bowl LIX are the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.
Both teams have former Cardinals on their rosters. The Eagles have one former Cardinal on their active roster. The Chiefs have three former Cardinals on theirs and another on their practice squad.
Who are they?
