Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon on his expectations of rookies

Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon spoke with the media at the Arizona Cardinals training center in Tempe on the first day of rookie minicamp.

The 2025 Arizona Cardinals schedule has been announced and fans are probably wondering: Did the Cardinals get any prime-time games this season?

The answer? Yes. And not just one.

The team is scheduled to play two prime-time games this season, giving NFL fans a chance to see Kyler Murray, James Conner, Trey McBride and company in the spotlight, a rare opportunity for the team.

Arizona didn’t have any prime-time games in 2023. Last season, it had two prime-time games, but they came with asterisks. The Cardinals appeared on Monday Night Football in Week 7, but that game was available nationally only on ESPN+ while another game was shown on ESPN. In Week 17, it played on Saturday night, but that game was only on NFL Network.

Arizona Cardinals prime-time games 2025

The Arizona Cardinals are slated to play in two prime-time games in the 2025 NFL season. The number could change if the NFL decides to flex the team into a prime-time slot later in the season.

The Cardinals have the NFL spotlight to themselves on Thursday Night Football in the Week 4 matchup against the NFC rival Seattle Seahawks, a game that could be pivotal to both team’s early-season hopes.

They could have an even bigger spotlight on them in the Monday Night Football game in NFL Week 9, with the game scheduled to air on ESPN and ABC as Murray makes another return to the area in which he shined in high school.

All game times are MST.
