Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett is reportedly continuing to hold out for a contract extension and raise.
After not attending a voluntary workout program last month, Brissett was not present Monday for the Cardinals’ first day of organized team activities.
OTAs are also voluntary, but Brissett would be subject to fines by the team if he does not attend mandatory minicamp in June.
Brissett, who has only $1.5 million guaranteed on the lone remaining year of his contract, is the Cardinals’ presumptive starter after the team released Kyler Murray on March 3.
Brissett, 33, stepped up in place of Murray last season, throwing for 3,366 yards, 23 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 14 games (12 starts). Arizona went 1-11 in those starts.
Since April’s voluntary workout program, the Cardinals have added a quarterback, taking Miami’s Carson Beck in the third round of the draft. Gardner Minshew II and Beck will handle the QB role in Brissett’s absence.
A Super Bowl champion with New England, Brissett has thrown for 14,766 yards with 76 touchdowns and 32 interceptions with the Patriots, Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins, Cleveland Browns, Washington Commanders and Cardinals.
