LONDON, England – For Neil Lomax, it was a chance to check off an impressive box on the bucket list: Playing a game at London’s legendary Wembley Stadium.
The former Cardinals quarterback has another intense memory from the franchise’s initial trip to London back in 1983: A quick turnaround, leading to a rough attempt at playing a preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings.
“My arm felt dead,” Lomax said. “The jet lag was terrible.”
The Cardinals, preparing for their first regular season game in London Sunday against the Rams, have played a regular-season international game before.
