Analysis Summary
Jacoby Brissett skipped the Cardinals' offseason program while requesting a contract extension that pays him as a starting quarterback. He's currently set to make $9.06M in 2026 with only $1.5M guaranteed, and Arizona is reportedly open to improving the deal. The Cardinals have not officially named Brissett as their starter and are simultaneously exploring draft prospects like Ty Simpson, so the security he's seeking reflects genuine uncertainty about his long-term role.
