2025 Fantasy Outlook
As a rookie second-round pick of the Cardinals in 2023, Ojulari showed promise with 40 tackles, including 4.0 sacks, in 17 appearances, but he tore his ACL in training camp last August, ending his second season before it even started. He remains in recovery mode as of the offseason program, but once he fully recovers, he'll be a part of a pass-rush group that includes big-ticket signing Josh Sweat, Zaven Collins, 2024 first-rounder Darius Robinson and 2025 third-round selection Jordan Burch.

Uncertain for Week 1
Ojulari (knee) is progressing well, but Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon wasn't ready Saturday to commit to the defensive end being ready for Week 1 of the regular season, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
Ojulari is currently on the PUP list as he works his way back from the torn ACL he suffered in training camp last August. While multiple reports have indicated Ojulari is doing well in his recovery, it's not a guarantee that he'll be ready for Week 1. The 2023 second-round draft pick recorded 4.0 sacks over 17 regular-season games in a promising rookie campaign.

2023
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.
