The Arizona Cardinals are gearing up for training camp, commencing on July 22, and their focus will be on evaluating players for the upcoming season. A notable name in the second year is cornerback Elijah Jones, drafted in the third round in 2024.

Jones showcased significant potential during his rookie season, but expectations have increased heading into 2025. With heightened scrutiny from the coaching staff and competitive pressure from fellow defensive backs, his performance will be critical. Key questions surround whether he can secure a starting position and adapt to the evolving demands of the secondary.
