Jacoby Brissett returned to Arizona Cardinals training camp Thursday, rejoining the roster as contract talks between the quarterback and the organization continue, the team reported.
Brissett's absence had opened the door for Gardner Minshew and rookie Carson Beck to take first-team repetitions, according to Yardbarker and Burn City Sports. Beck was Arizona's third overall pick in the 2026 draft, selected out of Notre Dame.
The contract uncertainty hovering over Brissett has been among the central storylines entering camp for first-year head coach Mike LaFleur, who must also settle whether the Cardinals' offense will lean on a physical rushing attack or an aggressive passing system.
NBC Sports and Arizona Sports both confirmed Brissett's return to camp Thursday.
Whether Brissett's contract situation is resolved before the Cardinals' first preseason game remains the number to watch.
