LaFleur Unworried About Brissett, Sweat Absences

Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur remains unfazed by the absence of starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett and edge rusher Josh Sweat from the team's voluntary offseason program.

The Cardinals are projected to be underdogs in every game this season, yet LaFleur maintains confidence in his players. 'The few guys that weren't out there that you guys probably saw today, very much we knew that they weren't going to be here and a lot of it was planned,' LaFleur said.

Brissett is seeking a pay raise while the Cardinals receive trade calls for Sweat, with the 33-year-old quarterback scheduled to make $4.88 million in 2026 despite only $1.5 million being guaranteed. 'Like I said, you'd be hard-pressed to see if Jacoby hasn't done most of what we are doing physically,' LaFleur added, expressing confidence that Brissett will adapt to the new scheme. milkshakeslot.com
