The Arizona Cardinals’ first depth chart of the season lists rookie running back Jeremiyah Love as the No. 2 option behind Tyler Allgeier.

The listing follows Allgeier’s work with the first-team offence during the off-season and training camp. The Cardinals signed him to a two-year deal in free agency.

Love, selected third overall in the 2026 NFL Draft, is recovering from a high ankle sprain sustained during the preseason. His availability for Week 1 remains uncertain, although head coach Mike LaFleur is optimistic he will play.

The depth chart also lists Love as the third kick returner, behind Devin Duvernay and cornerback Max Melton. However, the designation does not confirm who will handle returns in the game.

The Cardinals are preparing to open their regular-season campaign against the Los Angeles Chargers. The depth chart does not establish Love’s eventual workload or playing rotation, and the source notes that Bam Knight and Jalen Brooks returned kicks at different points last season.
