Arizona Cardinals may trade Jacoby Brissett during the 2026 NFL season
Summary

The Arizona Cardinals could move quarterback Jacoby Brissett if the team fails to remain competitive throughout the current season. Despite the team's struggles, the 33-year-old veteran produced 3,366 passing yards and 23 touchdowns last year while maintaining a low interception rate. ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler identified Brissett as a potential trade candidate at midseason, which would allow the organization to evaluate third-round rookie Carson Beck. Brissett is currently under contract only through this season, making him a viable option for teams seeking short-term depth. The Cardinals are navigating a transition period under head coach Mike LaFleur following a three-win campaign last year. If Arizona continues to trail in playoff contention, the front office could look toward the 2027 draft while testing Beck in a starting role.
