Brissett Reports to Cardinals Camp Without New Deal

His presence preserves leverage, forcing Arizona to proceed with Gardner Minshew and rookie Carson Beck available while talks continue.

Overview

  • Jacoby Brissett reported to Arizona's training camp on July 22 without a new contract, and team sources say negotiations remain active but unresolved.
  • The veteran is expected to be a 'hold-in' by staying with the team while avoiding full participation in practice until financial terms are agreed.
  • Under Brissett’s existing deal he is owed roughly $4.9 million for 2026 with about $1.5 million guaranteed and the two sides disagree on a starter-level pay increase.
  • Rookie Carson Beck signed a four-year, $7.4 million contract on July 22 and will participate in camp while Gardner Minshew — who took first-team reps in the offseason — prepares as the other veteran option.
  • Arizona’s willingness to negotiate a raise for Brissett signals the team views him as its likely short-term starter and will shape reps, roster decisions and how the club balances veteran stability with Beck’s development.
