The long wait will finally be over for football fans when the Arizona Cardinals and the Dallas Cowboys kick off the Pro Football Hall of Fame weekend Thursday night in Canton, Ohio.
The city is the birthplace of professional football, and fans will fill Canton throughout the weekend to see its return along with the enshrinement of this year's Hall of Fame class, which includes placekicker Morten Andersen, running back Terrell Davis, safety Kenny Easley, owner Jerry Jones, defensive end Jason Taylor, running back LaDainian Tomlinson and quarterback Kurt Warner.
The Cowboys and Cardinals will get the 2017 preseason started at 7 p.m. ET in a game that will be televised by NBC.
Neither the Cardinals nor Cowboys are expected to play their starters more than a series or two, and many of those players may not compete at all.
Coaches often use the early preseason games to give non-starters an opportunity to earn a position on the team. Starters are not likely to see significant playing time until the third preseason match because coaches don't want to risk injuries to their key players
The Hall of Fame game is an extra preseason one for both the Cardinals and the Cowboys, and fans should not expect either team to go off the script.
Who: Dallas Cowboys vs. Arizona Cardinals
When: 7 p.m. ET Thursday
Where: Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium
TV: NBC, NFL Network
Live streaming: NBCSports.com, NBC Sports app, NFL Game Pass.
