Jacoby Brissett's contract standoff finally ended on July 26, 2026. The Cardinals and Brissett agreed to a restructured deal worth $15.5 million guaranteed, with a total value of up to $21 million through performance incentives (from the Jacoby Brissett page).
It's a one-year "prove-it" deal — he still becomes an unrestricted free agent after the 2026 season. The resolution ended his holdout that had him missing OTAs, and HC Mike LaFleur said Brissett will start taking first-team reps in camp, though he stopped short of guaranteeing the Week 1 starting job.
