This is the third scuffle to break out at Cards camp after offensive lineman Will Hernandez was previously in the middle of two others.
Ismael was listed as the team’s third-string center on the depth chart this week after he played in 13 games with Arizona last season.
Murphy is an undrafted rookie out of North Carolina who was listed as the team’s fourth-string defensive tackle on the depth chart.
The Cardinals conclude training camp tomorrow and open the preseason this Saturday, Aug. 10, at 5 p.m. MST at home against the New Orleans Saints.
