The long snapper for the New England Patriots for the better part of the past decade, Joe Cardona only gets a handful of opportunities per season to make a tacke. On the opening weekend of the 2024 NFL Season, Cardona made his chance count, laying a big hit on the opposing punt returner that jarred the ball free, resulting in a critical turnover. Cardona's first career forced fumble was a turning point in the game for New England, and helped them to a 16-10 win over the Bengals on Sept. 8, 2024.
