In a preseason matchup against the Raiders on August 14, 2026, the Arizona Cardinals lost their second-round pick, guard Chase Bisontis, to a significant knee injury. Bisontis sustained a torn MCL while attempting to protect quarterback Gardner Minshew in the third quarter. An MRI confirmed the diagnosis, and Bisontis is expected to undergo surgery, which will sideline him for several months. The injury is particularly unfortunate as it occurs before his rookie season even begins, given that he was the third guard selected in the 2026 NFL Draft.
