Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen entered a huddle as a professional football player for the first time Friday, sharing the moment with the 10 other players staring back at him.
“Pretty cool, isn’t it?” Rosen said to his teammates.
The Cardinals opened a three-day minicamp for rookies and other young players, 61 in all, including those attending on a tryout basis.
Numerous mistakes were made, including by Rosen, the 10th overall pick in the draft. He missed some throws, especially early in the two-hour practice, but improved as the practice progressed. Near the end, he completed a pass of 65 yards or so to receiver Christian Kirk, the second-round pick and Rosen’s friend since the two met as high school stars on the football-camp circuit.
