Veteran Jacoby Brissett has been penciled in as the starter for the Arizona Cardinals on the team's first "official" depth chart... Brissett has a 2-15 starting record over the past two seasons partly because his teams, New England and now Arizona, have been so bad on defense and/or special teams.

Brissett ranked Tier 4 (#33) as Cardinals starter despite poor team support.

Ranked Tier 4 (#33) by The Athletic's QB tiers despite being penciled in as Arizona Cardinals starter. Brissett carries a 2-15 starting record over the past two seasons, though his teams (New England and Arizona) have provided the worst defense/special teams support of any QB with 17+ starts over that span (-6.8 EPA per start). The source notes he can read defenses, gets the ball out quickly, and can challenge downfield, but defensive coaches rated him higher than offensive coaches did—the third-largest split in that direction behind Tagovailoa and Prescott—suggesting scheme/context matters more than pure talent.
