# Gardner Minshew

NFL player. Position: **QB**. Team: **ARI**.

## Quick Facts

- **Position:** QB
- **Team:** ARI (Arizona Cardinals)
- **Career record:** 17-30 as starter

## 2026 Outlook

Minshew signed with the Arizona Cardinals on a one-year contract as a backup to Jacoby Brissett in March 2026. However, new HC Mike LaFleur has left the door open for a QB competition in training camp rather than immediately naming Brissett the starter. With Carson Beck (rookie, 3rd round) and Shedeur Sanders (second-year) also in the mix, Minshew could see significant reps in early system installation (per Arizona Cardinals haven't told Jacoby Brissett he's the 2026 starter).

## Role / Depth Chart

Backup. Competing with Brissett, Carson Beck, and Shedeur Sanders for snaps during camp.

## Injury Status

Healthy.
