Player profile of TE Troy Niklas as Arizona Cardinals training camp has opened As we have reached the second week of Arizona Cardinals training camp, we continue our annual look at the roster player by player. I look at what they’ve done, where they are now and how I project each player’s status at the end of camp. We go from A to Z and continue with TE Troy Niklas. Niklas is in his second season with the Cardinals. 2014 season: Niklas played in seven games, starting two of them, as a rookie for the Cardinals in 2014.
