Arizona Cardinals had a few absences from OTAs
The Arizona Cardinals held their first practice of voluntary OTAs, with some players absent. While attendance was generally good, several players were missing for various reasons, including contract disputes and injuries. The absence of key players raises questions about their readiness for the upcoming season.
- ▪The Cardinals' OTAs are voluntary, so absences are not necessarily viewed negatively.
- ▪Tight end Tip Reiman was present but in street clothes due to a serious ankle injury.
- ▪Quarterback Jacoby Brissett's absence is related to contract negotiations.
