Bidwill's and Ossenfort's Continued Mishandling of QBs 2023-2026 By Walter Mitchell Under Monti Ossenfort, when it comes to handling QBs, the Arizona Cardinals have become the NFC's version of the Cleveland Browns and New York Jets.  Here is the list of QBs that Ossenfort has had under contract over the past 4 years: 2023 * Colt McCoy --- presumed starter coming off injury-riddled 2022 season --- cut during pre-season due to arm issues * David Blough --- cut --- he signed to the Detroit Lions' PS * Jeff Driskel --- cut --- signed to PS * Clayton Tune --- 5th round pick --- thrown to wolves in CLE so that Kyler wouldn't have to take the punishment * Josh Dobbs --- acquired via late pre-season trade with CLE for ARI 5th round pick, went 1-7, then despite be assured by the head coach that he wouldn't be traded, was traded along with the Cardinals 7th round pick (conditional) to MIN for their 2024 6th round pick. * Kyler Murray --- handed the keys despite a heavily ...
