With some help from AI glasses, watch the first open @AZCardinals training camp practice from my POV. #AZCardinals x #BirdGang
Jonah Williams had surgery on his knee after injuring it for a second time during the 2024 season. Now that he’s healthy, the focus has shifted towards helping elevate the #AZCardinals offense in 2025. azcardinals.com/news/after-mis…
To add to @DaniSureck post, there have also been a handful of three safety packages when Garrett Williams is on the outside with Rabbit Taylor-Demerson, Budda Baker, and Jalen Thompson.
It’s only the first practice without CB Starling Thomas, but Garrett Williams is taking a lot of snaps at outside cornerback. Williams has experience doing so, but has mostly been a lockdown slot corner in the pros. Still plenty of time to finalize a decision at that spot
We have placed CB Starling Thomas V and CB Jaden Davis to IR We have signed CB Steven Gilmore Jr.
God is Good 💫🙏🏿 will always trust him in the good times and bad times my faith and trust will not waiver 🙏🏿 #ShakeBack
Tests revealed that Cardinals CB Starling Thomas, who has started 22 games the past two seasons in Arizona, tore his ACL during Friday’s practice, per source.
#AZCardinals CB Starling Thomas V jumped up to make a play on an overthrown pass and hit the ground hard. He’s now on the cart being taken back to the locker room.
Have not seen #AZCardinals defensive lineman Calais Campbell at training camp today.
#AZCardinals quarterback Kyler Murray said he wanted to run more this season. Here he is using his legs during training camp.
Yes, I know they aren’t wearing pads yet, but look at Elijah Higgins and Tip Reiman block and create a gap for Trey Benson. #AZCardinals coach Jonathan Gannon and OL coach Justin Frye were pumped up.
Forged by heat. Built to last. NFL Nike Rivalries | vs Seahawks 9.25 | Jersey Drop 8.28
Update on J.J .Russell: All tests were negative, he has been released from the hospital and has re-joined the team at training camp.
JJ Russell is being evaluated for a head & neck injury suffered in this afternoon's practice. He was alert on the field & had movement in all his extremities. He has been taken to a local hospital for further testing & continued evaluation.
I asked Calais Campbell about Tyrann Mathieu’s comments on @RichEisenShow. No surprise to see @CalaisCampbell speak so highly of @Mathieu_Era #AZCardinals x #BirdGang
💻 @Mathieu_Era The longtime #NFL safety announced his retirement after 12 seasons this week and explained his decision with us: #Saints #ChiefsKingdom #BirdGang

#AZCardinals linebacker J.J. Russell is being evaluated by trainers and the cart is out on the field. Every player is on a knee as Russell is placed on a backboard. Jonathan Gannon, Monti Ossenfort, and owner Michael Bidwill are all on the field as well.
Practice will now end early. Every player went over to Russell once he was put on the cart. Scary moment.

Marvin Harrison Jr. in motion leads to a nice deep ball connection from Kyler Murray at #AZCardinals training camp.
Day 1 of #CardsCamp is in the books. @CraigAZSports and @ZachAZCards discuss a bulked-up Marvin Harrison Jr. who is sounding more confident than he was a year ago at this time.
