There have been rumors about Kyler Murray\u2019s future with the team being up in the air, and Jacoby Brissett, in all likelihood, will not be there for the long-term.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5i\">First off, Murray suffered a foot injury during Arizona\u2019s Week 5 matchup, forcing him to be placed on injured reserve. When eligible to return, the team opted to roll with Brissett for the remainder of the season, hinting that Murray\u2019s future with the team could be in jeopardy.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5l\">Fast forward to the offseason, Jonathan Gannon was fired, and the team brought in Mike LaFleur to be the next head coach. A young offensive mind who had the opportunity to learn behind Sean McVay, LaFleur will be able to work with a plethora of talent.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5o\">But for that to happen, the Cardinals need to determine who will be their next quarterback. While not the number one fit, CBS Sports linked one AFC South quarterback to Arizona as a secondary option.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5r\"><a href=\"https:\/\/raisingzona.com\/mike-lafleur-makes-first-big-splash-as-head-coach-01kgnajxx6pj\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MORE: Mike LaFleur Makes First Big Splash As Head Coach<\/a><\/p>\n<p>CBS Sports Sees Cardinals As Suitor For Daniel Jones<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5x\">Daniel Jones was on a heater with the Indianapolis Colts before tearing his achilles in Week 14 against the Jacksonville Jagurars. In 13 games, Jones threw for 3,101 yards and 19 touchdowns to only eight interceptions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"60\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/news\/landing-spots-nfls-top-50-free-agents-george-pickens\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CBS Sports expects the Colts<\/a> to \u201cfigure something out\u201d with Daniel Jones, but obviousy, it is not a guarantee. If they do decide to let him walk, Arizona should be all in on the 28-year-old quarterback.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"63\">With three great pass catchers in Trey McBride, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Michael Wilson, Jones would thrive. Especially with Mike LaFleur pushing the buttons.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"66\">If the Cardinals do decide to trade Murray, it would be wise to sign Jones to a one or two year deal as a fall back. Drafting a quarterback would not be ideal, as this year\u2019s class ism\u2019t as strong as people thought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It is still unclear who will be the signal caller for the Arizona Cardinals&#8217; offense in 2026.
