The 2017 season started for the Arizona Cardinals and the discussion was whether or not Blaine Gabbert could unseat Drew Stanton as the lead backup quarterback to Carson Palmer.
The problem was, there was never really a question to be had.
Drew Stanton was always the backup quarterback for Carson Palmer heading into 2017, that was not going to change barring injury to Stanton.
Gabbert’s position on the team was never really in question either, the Cardinals always like to have a young quarterback to give a year to see how he grasps the offense and performs in it.
