Cardinals Edge Dennis Gardeck will miss the rest of the season after tearing his right ACL in Monday night's win over the Chargers. Gardeck suffered the injury while playing on the punt-return team. He previously tore the same ACL at the end of the 2020 season.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Gardeck is finishing up his age-30 season and the final year on his contract. This might be a tough one to come back from.

Gardeck might still rank among the top 20 D-linemen in your IDP league, but he hasn't been nearly that impactful.

He scored nearly 50% of his season fantasy points (depending on your format) in a 3-sack Week 2 performance against the Rams.

Zaven Collins and his 1 QB hit for the season now stands as Arizona's lead edge player. Julian Okwara ranked second among the group at a season-high 44% snap share against the Chargers.
