The New England Patriots are in the market for a new long snapper. Joe Cardona will not just miss the upcoming game against the Cincinnati Bengals due to an ankle injury but in fact the rest of the year.
According to a report by ESPN’s Mike Reiss, Cardona suffered a torn tendon in his foot and will not play again this season.
The 30-year-old experienced a partial tear in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals, but decided to play through the issue. However, it has gotten to a point where he was forced to miss both practices this week and was ruled out for the Bengals game on Christmas eve.
