Arizona Cardinals rookie first-round pick Walter Nolen III has a calf injury and is expected to “miss some time,” coach Jonathan Gannon said on Wednesday, putting a slight damper on the team's first day of training camp.
Nolen was placed on the PUP list to begin camp, along with LB BJ Ojulari, and DL Bilal Nichols. This development likely gives Cardinals fans a case of unwanted deja vu. One of Arizona's first-round picks last year, Darius Robinson, played in just six games due to a preseason calf injury.
Walter Nolen, selected 16th overall by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2025 NFL Draft, will miss the beginning of training camp with a calf injury.
