Cardinals starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been in contract negotiations with Arizona for several months, trying to secure more money as the team's starter. As of training camp, the Cardinals do not have Brissett under a contract he would want to play under, creating drama around whether he will take first-team reps and whether backup Carson Beck could challenge him.

A day to before the Cardinals report, and there is not yet a resolution to Jacoby Brissett’s contract situation. AZ and Brissett (who is his own agent) have been actively negotiating for the last several months and agree he’s due a raise. No consensus yet on the number. [Retweeted](

Brissett is expected to manage the Cardinals offense in 2026 under new head coach Mike LaFleur's Shanahan-style West Coast system after the team parted ways with Kyler Murray following a 3-14 season. He went 1-11 as the Cardinals' starter last season. External expectations focus primarily on evaluating young roster talent rather than competing for a postseason spot, with most analysts expecting Arizona to struggle to score points due to lack of elite roster depth and a punishing opening schedule.

Jacoby Brissett was included in a rebuild trade package (with Dallas Goedert and Jameson Williams) for a first-round pick and Malik Neighbors, illustrating how rebuilders can move depth pieces to contenders in best ball dynasty. This trade exemplifies the flexibility of shallow best ball leagues where rebuilders can consolidate assets and contenders can acquire multiple pieces.

Brissett is the probable Week 1 starter for Arizona after Kyler Murray's departure; despite accumulating 3,366 passing yards and 23 TDs in 12 starts last season, he finished 24th among 28 qualified quarterbacks in QBR (41.2), with Arizona's league-high passing rate partially inflated by constant game script deficit.

Article apparently includes Brissett as late-round QB target. Community reaction is tongue-in-cheek: one comment jokes 'Can't wait to grab Jacoby Brissett in round 10'; another (4 upvotes) sarcastically claims they won 1st place with Brissett as QB and calls him 'undisputed GOAT.' Sentiment is humorous/ironic rather than genuinely bullish.

Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett is holding out during spring workouts seeking a reworked contract to increase his guaranteed money from $1.5 million. He broke his offseason holdout to attend mandatory minicamp but turned his appearance into a hold-in, missing all voluntary work and installation of new head coach Mike LaFleur's offense. An extended training camp hold-in could keep Brissett from being up to speed on the scheme when the season starts. The holdout has created an opening for backup Gardner Minshew II to make a run at the starting job, threatening Brissett's presumed starter role.

Expected to be Cardinals' starting QB for 2026, but uncertainty about whether he'll play full season. Threw 40-50 times per game in 2025 due to team being down 10+ at halftime and lacking healthy RBs; this volume is not expected to repeat. Brissett's ability to create garbage-time stats in 2025 unlikely to continue with new coaching staff and run-first approach. Some debate about whether he can replicate 2025 performance with new scheme. Uncertainty about whether Carson Beck or Gardner Minshew will take over mid-season.

Brissett is placed in the move on/backup tier. While he's a solid backup and has exceeded expectations as a starter, he lacks the talent ceiling of Kyler Murray and is well above 30 years old, making him unlikely to be a long-term solution if he's a starting quarterback.
