TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) – Rookie Max Hall will start at quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals against the Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
Coach Ken Whisenhunt decided to go with the undrafted former BYU standout after Derek Anderson struggled through his four starts. Anderson got the job over Matt Leinart during the preseason. Leinart was released before the regular season began and has signed with Houston.
Anderson, signed by Arizona as a free agent after he was released by Cleveland, was benched in favor of Hall after throwing two first-half interceptions in last Sunday’s 41-10 loss at San Diego. Hall completed 8 of 14 passes for 82 yards without an interception but was sacked six times.
The Cardinals are tied for the NFC West lead at 2-2 but have been outscored 82-17 in their two losses.
