2025 Arizona Cardinals training camp roster preview: TE Josiah Deguara
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 tight end Josiah Deguara. Josiah Deguara background, 2024 season Deguara enters his sixth NFL season and first with the Cardinals. He was drafted om the third round in 2020 by the Green Bay Packers out of Cincinnati. He spent four seasons with the Packers, having his most productive season in 2021 when he had 25 receptions for 245 yards and two touchdowns. After four seasons with Green Bay, he played last season for the Jacksonville Jaguars. He played 87 offensive snaps in 15 games, catching three passes for 14 yards. His offensive playing time has declined every years since 2021, but he has turned into a core special teams player, logging at least 200 special teams snaps for three straight seasons. Josiah Deguara 2025 contract details, cap hit Deguara signed a one-year vet-minimum deal for 2025 for $1.17 million. It is a qualifying veteran contract, so the cap hit will count only $1.03 million. There were no guarantees, not even a signing bonus, in the contract. Questions he faces, roster outlook Deguara is an intriguing option for the tight end room because of his work on special teams. Will that be enough for him to make the roster? He is at best a player on the roster bubble, but his situation is interesting. It would appear that the top three tight ends are set in Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins and Tip Reiman. Deguara could be TE4, but the Cardinals only keep three active on game days, so his value on special teams would be negated. The battle between him and Travis Vokolek will be interesting to watch.

From Folsom to the pros: NFL players pay It forward
From Folsom to the pros: NFL players pay It forward FOLSOM, Calif. (KTXL) — Three former Folsom High School standouts returned home Saturday to host their third annual 'Bulldogs Back Home' youth football camp, giving back to the community that helped launch their football careers. Jake Browning (Cincinnati Bengals), Jonah Williams (Arizona Cardinals), and Josiah Deguara (Arizona Cardinals) welcomed local kids to Vista Del Lago High School for a free, half-day camp filled with drills, games, and mentorship. Advertisement 'What I like about this camp is I get to be around some of the up-and-coming younger kids for Folsom and also catch up with old friends,' said Browning. 'We bring the past, present, and future of Folsom football together in one camp.' The camp drew kids from third through eighth grade. While Browning and Deguara worked alongside participants on general skill development, Williams led an offensive line station that became an unexpected hit. 'We do some O-line drills, and it kind of takes a lot of kids out of their comfort zone,' Williams said. 'Not a lot of kids want to play O-line, but they always end up having fun. We get some good competition with the races at the end.' Deguara brought the energy, joking about a young camper who challenged him to a footrace. 'I was like, I don't know about that today,' he said with a laugh. 'And the kid goes, 'Yeah, you're too slow for me anyway.' These kids are pretty cocky nowadays, I respect that confidence.' Advertisement For the pros, the camp was less about fine-tuning technique and more about creating lasting memories. 'Just throwing the ball around with the kids that's what they want,' Deguara said. 'Teach them when you can, but the main thing is having fun.' Browning, who quarterbacked Folsom to a state title before starring at Washington and later reaching the AFC Championship Game with the Bengals, marveled at the talent in attendance. 'I'm always surprised,' he said. 'You ask a kid how old they are, they say nine, and I'm thinking, 'I don't think I was that good at nine.' These kids are really advanced.' Even some sideline banter reminded the players of how quickly time moves. Advertisement 'We were talking about touchdown celebrations,' Williams said. 'I tried to get them to do the gritty, and they told me that's not cool anymore. That's when I realized, I'm officially a grandpa.' The NFL trio plans to continue the annual tradition and keep inspiring the next wave of local athletes in Folsom. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
