Dennis Gardeck tore his acl

[JohnnyCakes]

I guess that means more Luketa and Dimukeje with Xavier Thomas being activated.

Yeah, I hope Monti actually does something. Surely there is someone out there for a trade.

dont hold your breath

 

[BirdGangThing]

if we're 4-4 and leading our division after this weekend monti kinda has to do something

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Reddick is still available. He only signed an adjusted contract for this year. I think he may actually get traded now.

 

[SECTION 11]

Cmon Xavier Thomas. Bust out!!

 

[urs]

Sucks for Gardeck man. At least it's a position of great depth for us...

 

[Buckybird]

Terrible news but I feared that was the case. I hate to say this but I believe this is either #3 or 4 ACL tears for him which could likely end his career. Get well soon Barbarian

Another guy in a contract year.

We could be bringing a lot of the old band back together on the cheap in 2025.

lol or spend the gazillion dollars they have under the cap and finally shore up the lines in the offseason

My point is they could be able to do both. Hernandez and Gardeck could likely come back on the cheap. Gardeck is best as a part-time rush specialist anyway; Hernandez would be the incumbent for a job that I'm guessing Monti will want to replace with a developing draft pick like Adams or Jon Gaines.

Love me some Gardecky... but dude is a speed and agility guy who will be 31 next August. We all know it takes most guys until the second season back to return to form.
But he will be an undersized 32 year old speed rusher who never was "great" by then.

Common sense says Dennis has taken his last snap as a Cardinal.
Especially with Beej coming back and next year's first round pick likely being a pass rusher.

Third ACL tear. Ouch.

 

[gimpy]

That only means he hasn't received an offer he likes

Then he probably really won't like ours.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Bring back Chandler Jones. If nothing else, he might take out Mike Bidwill .

 

[slanidrac16]

who in the bloody heck is going to rush the passer now?

Nobody.

 

[BritCard]

Sad for Gardeck. Great guy.

I wonder if they might bring in Jamin Davis that Commanders just released. Might fit that LB/OL flex role they use with Gardeck.

 

[602 Native]

3 ACL tears.

Sounds like its time to hang it up.

 

[speedy]

Really feel bad for him.

That front 7 stepped it up last night-

Apologies, the whole 11 did.

He’s always been a bill bates, but 4x more useful… breaks my heart, but I’m gonna keep looking at the FO.


What a difference it made having a pass rush last night….

 

[CardNots]

The Cardinals curse is alive and well with this team, prepare yourself

 

[Harry]

Sad for one of the biggest overachievers on the team.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

who in the bloody heck is going to rush the passer now?

Noah Boddy

 

[football karma]

bummer for Dennis

but heh-- a UDFA out of Sioux Falls by way of West Virginia State (not the better known WVU)

he has $12.5mm in career earnings over 6 years

thats pretty solid

 

[PJ1]

Have to make a move. We were bad when healthy.

 

[PDXChris]

Same knee as 2020 and the chances of retearing is extremely low, such horrible luck for him!

 

[BACH]

Reddick is still available. He only signed an adjusted contract for this year. I think he may actually get traded now.

Probably not doable. There is a poison pill in the Eagles - Jets trade. If Jets moves Reddick to a NFC team, the Jets pays a 2nd rounder in compensation.

 

[daves]

Third ACL tear. Ouch.

Yeah... he tore his right ACL in his senior year of high school and again in 2020. He was pretty ineffective in 2021. I haven't heard whether this is the third tear of the right ACL or the first tear of the left one.
