For the fourth consecutive summer, the Arizona Cardinals have lost a drafted offensive lineman to a knee injury, with two for the entire season.
The latest is this year's second-round choice, guard Chase Bisontis, who suffered a torn MCL in Thursday's preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He was placed on injured reserve Saturday and won't play this season.
Last year, sixth-round center-guard Hayden Conner was injured in the team's second preseason game and was placed on IR Aug. 26. He was activated on Nov. 29 and played five games.
In 2024, it was tackle Christian Jones, selected in the fifth round. He injured his knee in the preseason finale, spent the first chunk of the season on injured reserve and appeared in two games.
In 2023, fourth-round center/guard Jon Gaines II suffered a knee injury in the final preseason game and missed the entire season after going on IR Aug. 29.
