Gary was recovering from a season-ending injury, so he didn’t play a full-time role until Week 7. However, that didn’t stop him from creating. Despite just playing 23 snaps during the game, Gary recorded his first of two three-sack games in Week 3.
With 12 games played, the former first-round pick has an amazing nine sacks and 17 quarterback hits. Considering how few plays he had earlier in the season, it’s even better.
