Pro Bowl DE Berry Out For Cardinals-Jets Game

Vienna, VA (AHN) - Arizona will face the New York Jets this Sunday at the Meadowlands without Pro Bowl defensive end Bertrand Berry, who is sidelined indefinitely with a groin tear.

The 11-year-veteran suffered the tear during the Cardinals' 24-17 defeat against Washington.

It was not immediately known how much time Berry will miss and his return would depend on how fast he'll recover from the injury, his latest after a torn triceps that also shelved him for seven games last season.

Coach Ken Wisenhunt plans to rotate Travis LaBoy, Chike Okeafor and Clark Haggans in Berry's spot as well as in the other defensive end position.

Berry is in his fifth season with the Cardinals and so far has seven tackles and a sack each in every game.

It was with Arizona that he had his best season, when in 2004 he made a total of 48 tackles and a career-high 14 ? sacks plus four forced fumbles.

Berry also played for Indianapolis for three seasons and another three with Denver.
