Cardinals plan QB change from Jacoby Brissett to Carson Beck by late November
Summary

The Arizona Cardinals, currently with a 1-4 record, are considered unlikely to change quarterbacks before late November, despite Jacoby Brissett's solid statistical performance. ESPN's Dan Graziano reports that the team aims to ease rookie Carson Beck into the starting role, potentially after the Week 12 game against the Washington Commanders. The Cardinals face difficult matchups against teams like the Los Angeles Rams and Dallas Cowboys before their schedule lightens, which is prompting the delay in switching quarterbacks. Fans should expect Brissett to remain the starter in the interim, barring injury or significant downturn in form.
