Summary
Anthony Reinhard takes a surprising stand defending Jacoby Brissett’s contract demands, arguing that as a bridge quarterback who’s been promoted to starter, Brissett deserves pay that reflects his role—not backup-level wages. With a cap hit over nine million but only five million base salary, Reinhard says Brissett’s asking for a fair adjustment, not a blockbuster deal. He believes the Cardinals, under GM Monti Ossenfort, need Brissett’s leadership to show improvement, and his holdout is costing them crucial preparation time. Reinhard predicts a deal will close by early July, with Brissett’s request being reasonable and grounded in reality. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
