Ledbetter re-signed with the Cardinals on a one year deal Tuesday, Darren Urban of team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter, who was an exclusive rights free agent, signed his tender and will now return to Arizona for the 2023 season. After playing in just a couple of games over the course of his first two seasons, the 2019 undrafted free agent appeared in 14 games this past year, logging 22 tackles (10 solo) and a sack before landing on injured reserve with a knee injury prior to Week 18. With the Cardinals lacking depth along the defensive line, the 25-year-old should have an ample opportunity to build off of his productive 2022 campaign.

The Cardinals placed Ledbetter (knee) on injured reserve Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter was forced out with a knee injury during last Sunday's loss to Atlanta. While the nature of this issue is still unclear, the 25-year-old will now look to improve his health heading into the upcoming offseason, as Arizona has already been eliminated from this season's playoffs. Ledbetter logged 22 tackles and one sack across 14 appearances, and his absence will leave J.J. Watt, Michael Dogbe and Manny Jones as the Cardinals' only available defensive ends Week 18.
