TEMPE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals tight end Adam Bergen will miss the final two games of the season after injuring his left knee in Sunday's loss to Denver.

Coach Dennis Green said Monday that it hadn't been determined whether the injury would require surgery.

Bergen, in his second season out of Lehigh, caught 15 passes for 111 yards and one touchdown this season. He signed with Arizona as an undrafted free agent in 2005 and started nine games as a rookie.

Green said the Cardinals might bring John Bronson off the practice squad to back up rookie tight end Leonard Pope.




OMG...Throw in the towel. The Cards can't go on without Bergen. The season is now officially lost.

Great excuse as to why Cards finish 4-12.

There was a shot?

It's a joke...

Are the cheap shots on a guy who hurt his knee really necessary?

Come on the guy has a contract and it's not like it's life threatening.

Sorry thought this was the bash David Pollack for getting hurt thread not the bash Bergen thread.

By a Bronco defender?

Just a hunch. I didnt see a replay.

Bronco OL's are know to cut block, it's what they are taught...but, I'm not sure about their defenders.

I don't know how he got hurt just seemed unlikely there was a cut block by the defense. I suppose they could have done it after one of the INT's but I didn't notice it.

I think it was right after Wakefield's holding penalty. IIRC, someone was blocked into his leg and his cleat caught on the field.
