TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — The Arizona Cardinals have agreed to a four-year rookie deal with quarterback Carson Beck on Wednesday, one day before the team has its first practice of training camp.
The 24-year-old Beck looks as if he’ll be part of a three-man quarterback competition when training camp begins on Thursday, facing off against veterans Jacoby Brissett, a graduate of Palm Beach Gardens’ Dwyer High School, and Gardner Minshew. Kedon Slovis is also on the roster. The Cardinals are led by first-year coach Mike LaFleur.
Beck was drafted in the third round out of Miami after leading the Hurricanes to a runner-up finish in the College Football Playoff last season.
Beck had been at Georgia for his first five years in college before transferring to Coral Gables for his final collegiate season. In that 2025-26 season, Beck threw for 30 touchdowns against 12 interceptions, but caught fire in the second half of UM’s 13-3 campaign, completing 16 touchdown passes while being tagged with only three picks in that 7-1 finish.
The Cardinals have now signed all of the players in their most recent draft class.
Also on Wednesday, the team announced it signed defensive lineman Coziah Izzard and placed rookie defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor on injured reserve. Proctor injured his knee during offseason workouts.
