Cards' Jacoby Brissett not at offseason program, wants extension

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett is seeking a contract extension that will pay him as a starter.

NFL Network reported on Friday that Brissett is not attending the team's voluntary workout program as a means to address that situation.

Brissett, who has only $1.5 million guaranteed on the lone year of his current contract, is in line to be the Cardinals' starter after the team released Kyler Murray on March 3. Murray, the former No. 1 overall pick, signed a one-year deal with the Minnesota Vikings on March 12.

In addition to Brissett, the Cardinals' quarterbacks are Gardner Minshew II and Kedon Slovis. Arizona is expected to add one in the upcoming NFL draft.

Brissett, 33, stepped up in place of Murray last season, throwing for 3,366 yards, 23 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 14 games (12 starts).

The Cardinals, however, finished 3-14 in the tough NFC West in 2025 and fired coach Jonathan Gannon on Jan. 5 after three seasons.

A Super Bowl champion with New England, Brissett has thrown for 14,766 yards with 76 touchdowns and 32 interceptions with the Patriots, Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins, Cleveland Browns, Washington Commanders and Cardinals.
