Cardinals need big play from these 4th-year players in 2022

QB Kyler Murray tops the list, of course, but Byron Murphy, Zach Allen and Jalen Thompson all need to be great for the Cardinals to improve.

The Arizona Cardinals enter the 2022 season with expectations of doing more than fading late in the season and losing in the first round of the playoffs. To do that, as they have returned much of their roster from their 11-win 2021 season, they will need players to step up and improve.

In particular, a few fourth-year players are being counted on to take a big step forward and be great.

For some of them, it is a contract year.
