Ian Rapoport reports that the Cardinals will keepย Mike Glennon on their roster as their No. 3 quarterback, even though he had come up as a potential trade candidate in recent days.
It’s tough for teams to keep a third quarterback on their active roster, but it appears as though Arizona felt it best to at least maintain some depth at the position to start the year.
Glennon, 28, is a former third-round pick of the Buccaneers back in 2013. He played out the final yearย of hisย four-year, $3.104 million rookie contract before signing a three-year, $45 million contract with the Bears that includesย 18.5 million guaranteed last year.
The Bears elected to move on from him after just one season and he later signed aย two-year $8 million contract with the Cardinals this past March.
In 2017, Glennon appeared in four games and threw for 833 yards while completing 66.4 percent of his passes to go along with four touchdowns and five interceptions.
