Caution With Jermaine Gresham, Troy Niklas

Jermaine Gresham may come off the physically unable to perform list sooner rather than later, although Bruce Arians isn’t sure yet about his new tight end.

One thing he does know: “We want to get him in football shape,” Arians said Friday as the Cardinals opened training camp.

“He’s been a Pro Bowl tight end,” Arians said of adding Gresham to the roster. “I felt we needed another veteran in

case some of the young guys falter. I like the depth in that room.”

That depth will be challenged some early, because not only is Gresham on PUP, but the second-year tight end Troy Niklas is sidelined with a hamstring problem he hurt while training in preparation to come to camp.
