  • Cardinals' Dennis Gardeck: Will play Week 18

  • Cardinals' Dennis Gardeck: May miss regular-season finale

    Gardeck (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against Seattle, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. Gardeck didn't practice Wednesday, but he's followed that with a pair of limited sessions Thursday and Friday, giving him a chance to suit up Sunday. The veteran linebacker hasn't missed a game so far this season, and he's tallied 6.0 sacks among his 44 tackles (34 solo). If Gardeck isn't able to play this weekend, Victor Dimukeje (foot) and/or Ezekiel Turner could see more work in his stead.

  • Cardinals' Dennis Gardeck: Back at practice

    Gardeck (knee) was a limited participant at the Cardinals' practice Thursday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports. Gardeck missed the team's first session of the week Wednesday, so Thursday's participation is a step in the right direction. The linebacker will have one more chance to progress to a full workload Friday before Arizona's final injury report comes out ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale with the Seahawks.

  • Cardinals' Dennis Gardeck: Logs another sack in win

    Gardeck recorded five total tackles (three solo), including one sack and one tackle for loss, while also recording a pass deflection in Sunday's 25-23 win over the Falcons. The 29-year-old linebacker is having one of the best seasons of his career, as his five sacks are just two short of his career best in a season. Gardeck ranks second on the Cardinals in tackles for loss and first in sacks through the first 10 games of the year. Expect Gardeck to continue leading Arizona's defense and causing problems for opposing quarterbacks as the season goes on.

  • Cardinals' Dennis Gardeck: Carted off Sunday

    Gardeck was carted to the locker room with an undisclosed injury during Sunday's 33-26 win against the Eagles, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports. With a Week 15 sack of Jalen Hurts, Gardeck established a Cardinals franchise record by becoming the first undrafted player to reach six sacks in a season, surpassing Olsen Pierre's 2017 mark of 5.5. He's been incredibly productive on a limited workload, especially of late, with three sacks on 11 defensive snaps over his preceding two appearances entering Sunday. For as long as the Sioux Falls standout remains unavailable, depth at outside linebacker will be depleted behind Haason Reddick and Devon Kennard.
