Players to Watch During Cardinals Training Camp

As the Arizona Cardinals gear up for the 2025 season, training camp gives us a close-up look at key players who will play a big role in the team’s success. Three players, in particular, are worth watching closely: QB Kyler Murray, WR Marvin Harrison Jr., and rookie Walter Nolen III. Murray’s leadership and performance will be key to watch during practices. In his second season, Marvin Harrison Jr. is poised for a breakout, and first-round draft pick Walter Nolen is expected to bring explosiveness to the defensive line.

Kyler Murray

Tracking quarterback Kyler Murray during Cardinals’ training camp is a must. After showing real improvement last season, especially with the help of tight end Trey McBride and wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., fans should pay close attention to how Murray’s dual-threat ability is shaping up. Murray’s health, on-field consistency, and chemistry with the offense will be key to leading the Cards back into playoff contention. But what’s most important is his leadership, and training camp will give us a real sense of how he’s stepping up in that department.

Marvin Harrison Jr.

Marvin Harrison Jr. is another Cardinals player to keep an eye on during training camp, especially after he’s noticeably bulked up this offseason. The second-year receiver believes the added muscle will help him with contested catches and running after the catch. After a solid rookie year with 885 receiving yards and eight touchdowns, Harrison is expected to build on his success and have a breakout season as Arizona’s star wide receiver. Training camp offers fans a closer look at how he’s evolving in year two and how Harrison’s OPOY odds are stacking up.

Walter Nolen III

Rookie Walter Nolen III is definitely one to watch during training camp, as the Cardinals are counting on their 2025 first-round pick to make an immediate impact on defense. With his mix of size, strength, and athleticism, Nolen is a natural disruptor, and fans should be watching how he adjusts to the NFL’s speed and physicality. Nolen’s chemistry with defensive veterans like Calais Campbell and Josh Sweat will be key, as the Cardinals hope he will develop into a cornerstone of their defense for years to come.
