Joining Cardinals Gibbens signed a two-year contract with the Cardinals on Monday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Impact Arizona was in need of depth at off-ball linebacker after releasing Akeem Davis-Gaither on March 5, and Gibbens has been tabbed as his replacement. While Gibbens started eight of his 17 regular-season appearances for the Patriots last year, he may not be assured a regular role off the bat with Mack Wilson (ribs) and 2025 fourth-round pick Cody Simon present on the roster. However, Gibbens tallied 81 tackles, including 1.0 sack, four pass defenses and one forced fumble in 2025, so production is possible if snaps ever come up for grabs.

MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE

Becomes unrestricted Gibbens was not tendered by the Patriots, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Gibbens was a restricted free agent set to receive a $3.6 million tender offer. The Patriots' refusal to tender means Gibbens is now an unrestricted free agent. The linebacker played in all 17 regular-season games for the Patriots in 2025, accumulating 81 tackles (43 solo), including 1.0 sacks. Teams looking for a strong rotational linebacker with starting potential will likely be interested in offering the 27-year-old.

MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies 81 stops in 2025 Gibbens made 81 tackles (43 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across 17 regular-season appearances with the Patriots in 2025. He also had four passes defensed and one forced fumble.

Impact Gibbens additionally made 19 tackles (seven solo) across four postseason appearances. After playing out the 2025 campaign on a one-year deal with New England, the 27-year-old linebacker is now slated to become a restricted free agent. As such, the likeliest outcome is that he returns to the Patriots in 2026 to handle a rotational role at linebacker.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Upgrades to full practice Gibbens (elbow) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Gibbens was listed as limited Wednesday due to an ankle issue, but it appears he's back to full health and ready for Sunday's wild-card round matchup against the Chargers. He stands to handle his usual key rotational role behind starting linebacker Christian Elliss.
