Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
The Cardinals have employed Gardeck on special teams since he joined the pro ranks in 2018 as an undrafted free agent. When he finally got some work on defense in 2020, he had a mini breakout in the form of seven sacks on just 93 snaps. Since then, though, he's mustered only one sack in 28 games over the last two campaigns. Two factors may aid in a revival for Gardeck in the fall: J.J. Watt (retired) and Zach Allen (Denver) aren't on the roster, leaving holes to fill in the pass rush for a new 4-3 scheme.
After serving solely as a special teamer in his first two seasons, Gardeck took advantage of his first forays on defense in 2020, compiling seven sacks on just 93 defensive snaps. He was given a bit more run last year - 159 such plays in 14 games - but his final stat line read 23 tackles without a sack. The Cardinals lost sack maven Chandler Jones in free agency this offseason, so there is a hole to fill in the pass rush alongside J.J. Watt and Markus Golden. Whether or not Gardeck can take advantage remains to be seen.
