We will preview every player on the Cardinals roster leading up to training camp. This is about WR Tejhaun Palmer.
The Arizona Cardinals report to training camp on July 22 and begin the process of preparing for the regular season, forming the roster and determining starting jobs and roles on the team.
Leading up to the start of camp, we will take a look at every player on the offseason roster, their background, their contract, their play in 2024, questions they face and their roster outlook.
This focuses on receiver Tejhaun Palmer.
Tejhaun Palmer background, 2024 season
Palmer was drafted by the Cardinals in the sixth round in 2024 out of UAB, where he played three seasons.
Last year, he did not make the 53-man roster out of training camp but spent the season on the practice squad.
Tejhaun Palmer 2025 contract details, cap hit
After the 2024 season, he signed a futures deal for 2025. He will make $840,000 in salary, the league minimum for a player with no accrued seasons. His cap hit will equal that amount, although the Cardinals also carry almost $139,000 in dead money because he was cut last year, accounting for his signing bonus.
Questions he faces, roster outlook
Palmer faces the same questions he did last year. He is an athletic, speedy receiver from a smaller program. Can he show he can adjust to the NFL game? And after a year on the practice squad, can he show enough in training camp and the preseason to make the roster?
The receiver room is mostly set, so Palmer, at best, is a bubble player but is closer to a longshot to make the team. If not the active roster, he can compete for a spot on the practice squad again.
