BREAKING: Texas signed former QB Colt McCoy to a 4-year $110 million dollar extension, per Adam Schefter…..
Longtime backup quarterback Colt McCoy is joining the Arizona Cardinals on a one-year deal, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Schefter reported Thursday that McCoy was likely to become the backup to Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray following a visit with the team that was set for this week.
McCoy appeared in four games and made two starts for the New York Giants last season, throwing for 375 yards and a touchdown on a 60.6 completion percentage. He threw one interception and was sacked five times.
The 34-year-old had two solid seasons as a starter at the beginning of his career, when the Cleveland Browns drafted him in the third round in 2010. The Texas product slotted in as the starter for eight games as a rookie and then made 13 starts in 2011. Overall, he led the Browns to a 6-15 record throughout those two seasons.
