Cardinals Sign QB Joey Aguilar

This is the latest change in Arizona’s QBs room, which has gone through major upheaval this month. It began when the Cardinals benched Brissett for Minshew in a Week 8 win over the Cowboys. After demoting Brissett to third-string duties behind Minshew and Carson Beck, the Cardinals traded him to the Ravens last Friday. Minshew then suffered his injury in a Week 9 loss to the Seahawks, leading the Cardinals to add Aguilar and the well-traveled Josh Johnson (off the Bengals’ p-squad) in the past two days.

The Cardinals are now down to two rookies (Beck and Aguilar) and the 40-year-old Johnson at the game’s foremost position. Beck was a relatively high pick (No. 65 overall), whereas Aguilar went undrafted this year. A two-year starter at Appalachian State, Aguilar transferred to Tennessee last season and completed 67.3% of passes for 3,565 yards, 24 touchdowns and 10 interceptions in 13 games. Aguilar signed with the Jags after the draft, but he will now join his second organization a little under seven months later.
