Still no news on the MRI from what I gather.

No worries everyone, he will be ready for the Super Bowl *ducks*

That is some bad news, but what feared. He may not have been getting the sacks, but other teams still had to account for him. He'll be missed.

It looked like he hurt himself doing drills while on the sidelines and not in game. That must be a brutal way to get injured. Not ACL Grammatica bad, but still painful.

No, he hurt it in the game. He was testing if he could still play on the sideline.

Chandler Jones for the year 2021
Age: 31
Years left on contract: 1
Cap Hit: +$20mil

The Cardinals will have to re-work his deal one would think.

I would guess he's getting an extension for sure. But who knows.

He had his worst start of the season ever this year
Couldn't win battle against second string tackle
Personally this is a concern, if his decline started very quickly

he only played like 4 games with no preseason or camp really. I’m not putting to much stock into a small sample this season considering he’s been one of the 3 dominate pass rushers in the nfl for the last 5 years

This is a huge overreaction imo. Chandler had 19 sacks last year. His career high. Now he's washed up? All within a years time?

 

[Russ Smith]

So side question. Is he 100% out this whole year? Say we got far along in the playoffs, still can't come back?

I'm assuming yes from his tweet after the surgery that he needs more than 2.5 to 3 months rehab so even if we got red hot and somehow made a super bowl run, he'd still be unable to play

It's like this with a great young QB on a rookie contract, you secure what you can. We need pass rushers and corner backs and cannot afford to think the draft will give us that in a timely maturation process or any vets in free agency which we are not sure that have not played under this franchise. You sign Chandler to an extension and I guess you put Peterson on the transition tag though he's no longer elite

 

[Jetstream Green]

No, he hurt it in the game. He was testing if he could still play on the sideline.

That act does not establish when the injury happened because maybe he re-aggravated something which accounts for his drop off... though I agree it probably happened during the game or we would have heard something prior if not to qualify his early season play and what we usually expect of him

No brainer; negotiate extension.

 

[Buckybird]

The way the IR rules are this year, I guess it could be possible he could return. I don’t know how the injury works after surgery but AW & Ray Lewis played.

But then again he’s a OLB where the use of his hands are more important.

[Dr. Jones]

Re-working his deal would help us retain Pat P.

maybe 3yrs for 45mm for Chan
then 3yrs 45mm for Pat.

Not all guaranteed of course, and frees up some dollars for other help. My guess is neither would do it though.

Agreed. What do you think the odds are that (or do you think we even should) we re-sign Reddick or Golden? I like Kennard but I think they’re both better than him.

And to be fair even though his sacks were down he was still pressuring the QB and getting QB hits. He was still performing pretty well, but just was not actually getting sacks.
