Key Players
Smith's accuracy and football IQ have made him a reliable starter. His ability to operate efficiently in the short-to-intermediate area gives Seattle a consistent offensive floor.
Murray's speed and agility make him one of the most dangerous quarterbacks in space. When healthy, his ability to extend plays and create out of structure gives Arizona an explosive element.
Metcalf's combination of size and speed makes him one of the NFC's most physically imposing wide receivers. His deep-ball threat forces safeties to play back.
Harrison Jr. brings elite physical tools to Arizona's passing game. His combination of size, speed, and polished route running makes him a legitimate star.
