The Arizona Cardinals will begin training camp with 2025 first-round pick Walter Nolen, pass rusher BJ Ojulari and defensive lineman Bilal Nichols on the sidelines with injuries, head coach Jonathan Gannon said as players reported Wednesday.
Nolen, the 16th overall pick, is dealing with a calf injury, and Gannon was unsure if his injury could leak into the regular season.
Ojulari was lost for all of last season after going down with a torn ACL in last year’s training camp.

He’s been rehabbing ever since and wasn’t seen during the open portion of Arizona’s offseason programs.
When healthy, the third-year pass rusher could play an important role within the revamped pass-rushing rotation led by Josh Sweat, Zaven Collins and Baron Browning.
With Ojulari sidelined to start training camp, that means more reps for rookie Jordan Burch and second-year pro Xavier Thomas.
Nichols made it six games before a stinger/neck injury sidelined him the rest of the way.
The trio of front-seven players missing out means they will be behind a group of rotation players that also includes Calais Campbell, Dalvin Tomlinson, Darius Robinson, Dante Stills and L.J. Collier.
Undrafted rookie Elijah Simmons is another name to watch, too.
