The Arizona Cardinals are gearing up for training camp, set to begin on July 22. Among the new faces on the roster is tight end Oscar Cardenas, an undrafted rookie who signed after the 2025 NFL draft. Cardenas brings with him significant college experience, having played six seasons at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). During his time there, he took the field in 65 games, starting 40 and ultimately becoming the school's all-time leader in receptions and touchdowns for a tight end.

As the Cardinals prepare for the upcoming season, Cardenas presents an intriguing option at tight end, competing for a role on a team that looks to redefine its offense. His performance during the offseason will be crucial as the coaching staff evaluates potential starters and the depth chart. Cardenas faces key questions about his adaptability to the professional level and whether he can carve out a niche in an NFL tight end room.
