TEMPE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals incumbent starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett has not been in attendance for the start of the team's offseason program as he waits for a new deal, sources told NFL Network on Friday.
After starting 12 games for the Cardinals last season in place of an injured Kyler Murray, Brissett wants an extension, sources said.
Brissett is scheduled to earn a base salary of $4.88 million in 2026, but only $1.5 million of that is guaranteed. He can earn up to $510,000 in active roster bonuses, $50,000 in a workout bonus and $2 million in incentives.
New Cardinals quarterback Gardner Minshew, who signed with Arizona in March, is scheduled to have $5.14 million of his contract guaranteed this season.
After Arizona released Murray in March, Brissett was not told he would be the starter in 2026, a source told ESPN.
According to NFL Network, the Cardinals appear willing to address Brissett's desire for a new deal.
The possibility of Brissett not reporting for the start of voluntary workouts under new coach Mike LaFleur was first discussed months ago, a source told ESPN.
On Thursday, during Arizona's annual predraft news conference, neither general manager Monti Ossenfort nor LaFleur would commit to a starter.
"We're not really naming anybody, and we'll see how that room looks by the time we get [to] August," Ossenfort said.
Said LaFleur: "None of that's even being discussed because all we're trying to do is get a foundational aspect of what this system looks like."
