2024 Fantasy Outlook
A second-round pick in the 2023 Draft, Ojulari was eased into the Cardinals defense early on, waiting until Week 8 to earn a snap share of 40 percent. Not coincidentally, he tallied his first career sack in that game, and with a regular role moving forward, he racked up 35 tackles, including 4.0 sacks, in his final 10 appearances as a rookie. Projecting sack numbers can be a fruitless endeavor, but the workload should be available for Ojulari to harass opposing quarterbacks often this season. Read Past Outlooks
Shifts to IR
The Cardinals placed Ojulari (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Ojulari tore his left ACL two days ago, so his move to Arizona's IR is no surprise. The 2023 second-round pick out of LSU had a solid rookie campaign, recording 40 total tackles, including 4.0 sacks, and one pass defended across 17 regular-season games (394 defensive snaps). With Ojulari missing the entire coming season, expect 2024 first-round pick Darius Robinson to see more first-team reps as the preseason unfolds.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Ojulari made a mark in three seasons at LSU, notching 16.5 sacks and 25.5 tackles for loss in 31 games. After he measured in with 34.25-inch arms at 6-2, 248 pounds at the combine, the Cardinals invested the 41st overall pick in this year's draft on the pass rusher. With the team's top two sack artists leaving town this offseason - J.J. Watt retired, and Zach Allen signed with the Broncos - Ojulari may be called upon right away to fill the void alongside Zaven Collins and Dennis Gardeck.
