Arizona Cardinals veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett has continued his holdout for a new deal and is not present for the team's OTA practices this week, a source told Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. The Cardinals started their second week of OTAs on Tuesday, and they will continue on Wednesday and Friday. Brissett also didn't show up for OTAs last week and has yet to report to the team's offseason program as he enters the second year of a two-year deal he signed in March of 2025. The 33-year-old signal-caller is scheduled to make $4.88 million in 2026, with the potential to grow to $5.39 million, of which only $1.5 million is guaranteed. Backup Gardner Minshew II will be guaranteed $5.14 million. The two sides are reportedly "significantly" far apart on a reworked deal that will reward Brissett for his strong play in 2025 after he took over for the injured Kyler Murray. In 12 starts for Arizona last year, Brissett was the league's top-ranked QB from Week 6 on dropbacks, play-actions, completions, and attempts. He was second in passing yards and fourth in completion percentage above expected. Brissett will be the team's starter again in 2026 with Murray gone, but with an offense that's expected to be much more balanced under new head coach Mike LaFleur, regression is expected for the veteran gunslinger. He's ranked as RotoBaller's QB27 in redraft formats for the upcoming season.--Keith Hernandez
