Jacoby Brissett absent for Arizona Cardinals' final OTAs week
Summary

The Arizona Cardinals began their final week of voluntary offseason workouts on June 1, with quarterback Jacoby Brissett absent due to a contract dispute. Brissett, who started 12 games last season, is seeking a reworked contract beyond his $4.9 million salary for 2026, which includes just $1.5 million guaranteed. In his absence, Gardner Minshew has been taking first-team reps while rookie Carson Beck has received additional opportunities. The situation remains unresolved as mandatory minicamp is scheduled for June 8-10, and Brissett risks fines if he does not participate.
