Carson Beck's QB career in college wasn't perfect. He says that can help in adjustment to NFL
The third-round pick brings 43 college starts and a comeback from elbow surgery as Arizona searches for a long-term answer at quarterback.
- On Thursday, Arizona Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur introduced third-round draft pick Carson Beck at the team's practice facility. Beck, a 24-year-old with 43 college starts, brings extensive experience from a six-year career spanning Georgia and Miami.
- Beck is roughly 18 months removed from major elbow surgery after tearing his UCL in December 2024. He made 43 starts across Georgia and Miami, leading the Hurricanes to a College Football Playoff runner-up finish last season.
- The Cardinals finished 3-14 last season, prompting the firing of third-year coach Jonathan Gannon. Former starter Kyler Murray recorded a 38-48-1 record over seven seasons before joining the Minnesota Vikings.
- Veteran Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew remain on the roster to provide depth. The duo holds a combined 37-75 record as starting quarterbacks, with Brissett finishing last season 1-11.
- Beck will take the field for the first time as an NFL quarterback Friday at rookie minicamp. "My arm is as strong as it's ever been," Beck said, noting he is focusing on mechanics to ensure they are exactly 100% accurate.
