Brissett's reworked deal locks him in as Cardinals starter for 2026.

Brissett's holdout resolved with a reworked one-year deal worth $15.5 million, rising to $21 million with incentives—nearly doubling his initial two-year, $12.5 million contract. The revised deal locks him in as Arizona's starting quarterback for 2026 after he led the Cardinals to a 1-11 record in 2025 (14 games, 12 starts, 64.9% completion, 3,366 yards, 23 TDs, 8 INTs) following Kyler Murray's season-ending foot injury. Head coach Mike LaFleur confirmed Brissett returns to first-string reps as Gardner Minshew works with the second string.
