Jacoby Brissett to Start for Cardinals Against Seahawks Sunday

Jacoby Brissett will continue as the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, at least for the upcoming game against the Seattle Seahawks. This decision was confirmed today by head coach Jonathan Gannon.

Brissett to Start Against Seahawks

Brissett has been leading the team since Kyler Murray sustained a foot injury, keeping him sidelined for the past three games. Gannon stated, “Jacoby will start, and Kyler will keep working on his health.” Gannon also noted the positive output of the offense under Brissett’s leadership.

Murray’s Situation

While Gannon has not completely ruled out the chance of Murray being active for Sunday’s game, he emphasized that, if active, Murray will not start. He mentioned, “I do like what the offense is doing right now. We’ve operated well and we will go from there.”

Despite a solid performance from the team, Gannon indicated that there are no immediate plans to switch back to Murray. He believes in maintaining focus on the game against Seattle. The coach acknowledged Brissett’s contributions, saying, “I think we’re doing a pretty good job on offense.”

Implications for the Team

If Brissett performs well and the Cardinals achieve an upset against the Seahawks, it may complicate the decision regarding Murray’s return. For now, Brissett remains crucial to the Cardinals’ offensive strategies as they prepare for their match this Sunday.
