HBO Sports is partnering with NFL Films for another installment of the hit HBO series Hard Knocks In The Season. This new installment of Hard Knocks In The Season will focus on the Arizona Cardinals. The primetime docu-series will be filmed in season and follow the NFC West contender throughout the 2022 NFL season beginning in November. The series will be available on HBO and to stream on HBO Max.
The last season of Hard Knocks In Season followed the 2021 Indianapolis Colts through their regular season and was well received.
“Last season Hard Knocks made an unprecedented leap, documenting an NFL regular season in real-time for the first time with the Indianapolis Colts,” said Keith Cossrow, NFL Films Vice President and Senior Coordinating Producer. “It was a vivid and illuminating look at the life of an NFL team. This season, we are eager to build on that success and go even further with one of the most exciting teams in the NFL. We can’t wait to work in Arizona, and we thank Michael Bidwill, Steve Keim, Coach Kingsbury, and the entire Cardinals organization for this opportunity.”
“We’re excited to feature the Arizona Cardinals on Hard Knocks during the NFL regular season in the upcoming installment of Hard Knocks In Season,” said Nancy Abraham and Lisa Heller, Co-Heads Of HBO Documentary & Family Programming. “We couldn’t be happier to continue to expand our tremendously successful partnership with the NFL and grow the Hard Knocks experience for our viewers. We’re thrilled that the Cardinals will be joining the roster of teams that have graciously invited our audiences into their world.”
This in-season edition of HARD KNOCKS will be the first appearance for the Cardinals as part of the Hard Knocks franchise, which originally launched in 2001.
The preseason edition of Hard Knocks is set to resume with the Detroit Lions of the NFC North being featured on the five-episode run of “Hard Knocks Training Camp,” debuting TUESDAY AUGUST 9.
