Mike LaFleur seeks more joint practices for Arizona Cardinals
Summary

Arizona Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur expressed a desire for two or three joint practices this preseason, but only one session with the Green Bay Packers is scheduled. LaFleur noted that joint practices can simulate game-like conditions and potentially lower injury risks. Scheduling difficulties hindered the Cardinals' ability to arrange additional practices this year, as many coaches had already set theirs. The team's current facility constraints also limit hosting multiple rosters. Moving forward, LaFleur intends to schedule joint practices earlier in the offseason to secure more opportunities next year.
