The Arizona Cardinals are brimming with optimism as they head into the 2025 season under the leadership of head coach Jonathan Gannon and general manager Monti Ossenfort. Following a steady growth since their arrival in 2023, the team is ready to take the next step towards a deep playoff run after nearly a decade of waiting. While the offense remains largely unchanged, the return of quarterback Kyler Murray is pivotal. Coming off knee surgery, Murray's dual-threat ability is expected to elevate the Cardinals' performance.

This season sees Murray with a wealth of offensive weapons, including a resilient James Conner, who continues to defy the odds as a productive running back. The offensive line, anchored by left tackle Paris Johnson Jr., remains intact, providing stability and support for a potent rushing attack. With the potential for explosive plays and a renewed focus on maximizing Murray's talents, the Cardinals are poised to be a formidable contender in the NFC West.
