Elijah Jones, a third-round pick by the Arizona Cardinals, enters his second season with a lot to prove after missing his entire rookie year due to an ankle injury. Despite being placed on injured reserve during the preseason, Jones was designated to return but ultimately did not see any game action.

As he prepares for the 2025 season, Jones faces uncertainty about his place on the roster. With the Cardinals having drafted several players who will compete for spots, including other cornerbacks, Jones must demonstrate his potential and ability to contribute on the field.
