The Arizona Cardinals returned to practice on Tuesday after a day off to get work in. For those who were unable to attend, here is what you should know from Tuesday.
No pads
The Cardinals began wearing pads in practice on Saturday and did so on Sunday. Following their day off on Monday, instead of getting back at it in pads, they eased back in with shorts.
First camp skirmish
It happens in most NFL camps even though most teams do not allow it. It wasn’t an all-out fight, but there was a dustup between cornerback Robert Alford and receiver Damiere Byrd. Alford has been very physical in his coverage and Byrd had had enough, apparently.
Another Kyler Murray highlight
Murray continued to look good. He has been consistent and he even mixes a highlight or two most practices. Tuesday was no exception.
KeeSean Johnson steals the show again
Johnson has been the focus of a lot of attention the last couple of days. He has gotten work with the first-team offense and is the rookie that has been the most steady. Prior to Tuesday, he did not have the flashy plays in practice but that changed on Tuesday.
