On Saturday, the Cardinals waived veteran QB Sam Bradford, which led to some speculation that he could be a potential option for the Giants, given that Bradford played some of his best with Pat Shurmur has his offensive coordinator.
However, a Giants’ source tells Dianna Russini that New York has “no interest” in bringing Bradford.
It appears as though the Giants are comfortable keeping Eli Manning in place as their starter. It’s worth mentioning that rookie backup Kyle Lauletta was recently arrested.
Bradford, 30, is a former first-round pick of the Rams back in 2010. He spent four years with the Rams before he was traded to the Eagles in 2015. After Bridgewater sustained a serious knee injury last year, the Eagles traded him to the Vikings for draft compensation.
Bradford played out the final year of his two-year, $36 million contract that included $36 million guaranteed with the Vikings.
The Cardinals signed him to a two-year, $40 million contract that includes $15 million guaranteed this past offseason. Bradford was set to make base salaries of $5 million and $7.5 million over the next two years of the agreement when the Cardinals waived him.
In 2018, Bradford appeared in three games for the Cardinals and completed 62.5 percent of his passes for 400 yards to go along with two touchdowns and four interceptions.

The GMEN won’t entertain any QB that actually understands the offense Shurmur wants to run every game. Because John Mara now wants to give Manning a brand new fully guarranteed 5 year contract consisting of Aaron Rodgers type money.
Amazing! Because Papa Mara had no problem sitting there like a tree stump. While George Young and new HC Dan Reeves made Phil Simms a salary cap casualty, to end Simms career as a NYGiant. Simms was never accused of felony memorabilia fraud either. Unbelievable! That John Mara actually made that go away for Manning. It’s funny John Mara made scapegoats out of Reese and McAdope. With his 3-13 is unacceptable and change is needed drama. And the GMEN are worse now then with Reese and McAdope at the helm. Manning has been sacked 31 times in 8 games this year. Manning was sacked only 31 times in all 16 games last year and that is with no running game at all. Flowers was the supposed fault, yet Solder is like a turnstile at LT. You’re seeing first hand the reason Belichick let Solder walk. Also. Anyone been noticing how well the Panthers are playing without Gettleman at the helm?
