The Arizona Cardinals<\/a> have some questions to answer about their quarterback position, and free agency might be an answer. While the future of both Kyler Murray and Jacoby Brissett with the team is uncertain at best, the Cardinals are a team to watch in the pursuit of one young soon-to-be free agent quarterback.<\/p>\n According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler<\/a>, the Cardinals and Miami Dolphins<\/a> are two teams to watch.<\/p>\n The Cardinals are reportedly seeking trade partners to deal quarterback Kyler Murray, who missed the final 12 games of last season with a foot injury.<\/p>\n Willis has clear connections to the Cardinals. He was drafted by the Tennessee Titans<\/a> while Cardinals general manager Monti Ossenfort worked in their front office. Willis played the last two seasons for Green Bay Packers, whose head coach, Matt LaFleur, is new Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur’s older brother. New Cardinals offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett was on Green Bay’s staff last season.<\/p>\n Willis is intriguing but risky. He started trhee games over the last two seasons for the Packers and went 2-1. He threw six touchdown passes without an interception and also rushed for another three scores.<\/p>\n Need a news break?

It reminds people of quarterbacks like Kevin Kolb and Matt Flynn, two backups who didn’t turn out to be anything when given starting opportunities with other teams (Kolb coming to the Cardinals in 2011 and lasting only two injury-riddled seasons).<\/p>\n But resetting the quarterback room might be what LaFleur wants. The organization seems to want Murray gone. LaFleur probably realizes he can’t win with Jacoby Brissett.<\/p>\n It would be at least worth trying with Willis for at least a year, giving fans something different.<\/p>\n Get more Cardinals<\/a> and NFL coverage from Cards<\/a> Wire’s Jess Root and others by listening to the latest on the Rise Up, See Red podcast.
