Good luck to the fan favorite Dennis Gardeck.

The Dennis Gardeck era in Arizona is over.

Jordan Schultz is reporting that the Arizona Cardinals special teams captain and pass rusher is signing with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Gardeck was an undrafted free agent from Sioux Falls, who had seven sacks in his third year, but had also dealt with injuries in almost every season.

The last two seasons he had nine sacks but only played in 24 games during that timeframe.

So, health has been the biggest question, as he played in 17 games in 2023, but only seven last season.

Gardeck has made nearly $16 million in his career, and at nearly 31 years old, he has surpassed all expectations.

Now the question becomes, can he stay healthy and continue for a little longer with the Jaguars?

Gardeck was a fan favorite because of his style of play, enthusiasm and reckless abandon for his own safety.

Good luck to Gardeck in his next stop.
