Sources: Cardinals' Jacoby Brissett not at offseason program
ESPN • • sports
Key Points:
- Arizona Cardinals starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett has not attended the team's offseason program as he awaits a contract extension, sources told NFL Network.
- Brissett, who started 12 games last season, is scheduled to earn $4.88 million in 2026 with only $1.5 million guaranteed, while new quarterback Gardner Minshew has $5.14 million guaranteed this season.
- After the Cardinals released Kyler Murray in March, Brissett was not officially named the 2026 starter, and the team has not committed to a quarterback for the upcoming season.
- Cardinals management, including GM Monti Ossenfort and coach Mike LaFleur, have remained non-committal about the starting quarterback position and are focused on system development.
- The team appears willing to negotiate Brissett's contract demands, with his potential absence from voluntary workouts anticipated for months.
