Cardinals Rookie Kaleb Proctor Tears Meniscus in OTAs, Could Miss Significant Time or Entire Season
Arizona Cardinals defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor suffered a knee injury during organized team activities and faces an uncertain timeline for return.
Cardinals rookie defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor tore a meniscus during OTAs and will miss quite a bit of time, coach Mike LaFleur said Wednesday. LaFleur said Proctor could potentially miss the entire season. He did not want to commit to that outcome but said it is definitely a possibility.
"So, that's the one that sucks," LaFleur said. Proctor was not on the field for Tuesday's minicamp practice. LaFleur made the announcement Wednesday in response to a question about Proctor's health. Proctor was the Cardinals' fourth-round pick out of Southeast Louisiana.
Despite going to a Football Championship Subdivision school, Proctor stood out to the Cardinals because of his ability to step up and play well in games against FBS opponents. ESPN reported the injury and LaFleur's comments from Tempe, Arizona.
