Sauce Gardner News
New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Gardner, who has 20 tackles and one forced fumble this year, will miss the first game of his career in Week 6. With D.J. Reed (concussion) and Brandin Echols (hamstring) also out, New York plans to start Bryce Hall and practice squad call-up Craig James at cornerback.
New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner (quadriceps) isn't practicing at training camp on Wednesday due to a quadriceps injury. Defensive end Carl Lawson (back) also isn't practicing. Gardner's injury doesn't appear to be very serious, but the Jets will be cautious with their shutdown corner before the team's second preseason game this weekend. The 22-year-old is not expected to play this Saturday against the Carolina Panthers. The former fourth overall pick last year was a big reason why New York's defense took a huge step forward last year and why they are one of the scariest units again heading into the 2023 campaign. Gardner was the Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2022 and had 75 tackles (51 solo), two interceptions and a league-high 20 passes defensed in 17 starts.
New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner took home the Defensive Rookie of the Year honor by a considerable margin over second-place Aidan Hutchinson from the Detroit Lions. The moment Gardner stepped on the field for the Jets, he was a dominant force on defense. He was the best in the league at passes defended with 20 while collecting two interceptions and 75 tackles. The 22-year-old also only allowed a 48.1 completion percentage and -8.4 completion percentage over expected. This defensive unit for the Jets could be worth rostering in more leagues next season.
