Lopez finished the 2024 season with 28 total tackles (10 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding three passes defensed, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over 16 games. Lopez remained a productive asset on the Cardinals' defensive line this season, notching his first career forced fumble in Week 1 versus the Bills. The defensive tackle will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, potentially looking for a new squad in 2025.
Lopez (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Patriots, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. The defensive tackle was a limited participant in practice Thursday and carried a questionable tag into the weekend. Lopez has 23 tackles (nine solo), including 1.0 sacks, three passes defensed, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 12 games this season.
Lopez (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears. Lopez was limited in practice all week and was listed as questionable, but he's been deemed ready to play after missing Week 8. Lopez has 17 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass breakup and one forced fumble on the season.
Lopez (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports. Lopez played through his ankle issue in the Cardinals' Week 7 win over the Chargers, failing to record a stat on 22 total snaps (18 defensive and four on special teams). However, it appears the 27-year-old worsened his injury, as he was unable to practice Thursday and now won't play in Week 8. Expect Khyiris Tonga to see additional snaps as one of Arizona's top interior defensive linemen in Lopez's stead.
Lopez (ankle) is active for Monday night's game against the Chargers. Lopez was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable. He's played 54 percent of the defensive snaps this season, logging 17 tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble.
Lopez (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Chargers. Lopez has been limited all week due to an ankle injury he presumably picked up in Week 6 against the Packers. If Lopez is unable to play Monday, Khyiris Tonga and Naquan Jones should see increased snaps at defensive tackle alongside starter L.J. Collier. Lopez has accrued 17 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass breakup and one forced fumble through the first six games of the regular season.
