Trade rumor from ESPN links Falcons Jets to possible offseason deal with Cardinal

Could the or make a trade for quarterback Jacoby Bri sett this offseason? One NFL insider from ESPN thinks it could happen. According to , the door is still open for the Cardinals to keep Kyler Murray, who has been considered a trade candidate this offseason. If Murray stays, Fowler believes that could pave the way for Arizona to trade Bri sett, who played well in place of an injured Murray last season. If Bri sett hits the block, Fowler says the Jets and Falcons are two teams that could come calling thanks to Hunter Nourzad Jersey the veteran signal-caller's connections with Jets offensive coordinator Frank Reich and Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski. "In Arizona, my sense is thatKyler Murraystaying with the Cardinals is still po sible. New coach Mike LaFleur is familiar with Murray's game," Fowler reported. "Nothing is decided as LaFleur sorts through staffing i sues. Keeping Murray could prove the path of least resistance. If he stays,Jacoby Bri settwould become a workable trade candidate. He's due a reasonable $4.88 million in base salary. "He has friends in the league -- such as Falcons coach Kevin Stefanski and Jets offensive coordinator Frank Reich -- who could have interest in getting him," Fowler concluded. Bri sett makes sense for both teams. The Jets don't have a sure starting option on their roster going into the offseason. Justin Fields failed miserably at cementing himself as the long-term solution and will likely be cut, and Tyrod Taylor is a pending free agent. While Bri sett isn't a sexy quarterback option by any stretch, he could bridge the gap for New York until they find their guy. At the very least, Bri sett would make the Jets more competitive than Fields did. In Atlanta, the Falcons need some competition and an insurance policy for Michael Penix Jr. It's po sible Atlanta has that on its roster already in Kirk Cousins, but the this offseason. Bri sett would be an ideal fit for what the Falcons need. He can push Penix while also giving Atlanta a fallback option in case the third-year signal-caller falters. More NFL news Austin Reiter Jersey
