The Quarterback Conundrum for the Arizona Cardinals

The Arizona Cardinals are a far cry from needing a quarterback, as the Cardinals are set with Carson Palmer as their starter, with Drew Stanton, Blaine Gabbert, and Trevor Knight stashed behind him at the start of training camp.

Obviously Stanton is (probably) a lock to be the main backup, as journeyman Gabbert and undrafted rookie from Texas A&M Knight battle for the third job. The fact will remain, it's less of a guarantee that any of these quarterbacks will be on the Cardinals roster next offseason.

Rumblings around the NFL say that Carson Palmer will most likely retire after the season, while Drew Stanton and Blaine Gabbert are on 1-year contracts.
