Brissett locked in as Cardinals starter with contract nearly doubling to $21M with incentives.

Brissett's reworked one-year contract worth $15.5 million (up to $21 million with incentives) represents a sizable raise over his initial two-year, $12.5 million deal ($6.25 million AAV), nearly doubling the total value if he hits all incentives. The revised deal locks him in as the Cardinals' starter for 2026 after he took over mid-2025 when Kyler Murray suffered a season-ending foot injury. Head coach Mike LaFleur confirmed Brissett returns to first-string reps as Gardner Minshew works with the second string.
