The Arizona Cardinals are reportedly set to sign quarterback Matt Barkley after Drew Stanton suffered a sprained knee during the Cards' 22-16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night at University of Phoenix Stadium.
Chris Mortensen of ESPN.com provided the update Saturday and noted the Cardinals, who are without starter Carson Palmer because of a broken arm, are preparing to give Blaine Gabbert the reins of the offense against the Houston Texans in Week 11 if Stanton is unavailable.
Stanton played the entire game against Seattle, completing 24 of his 47 pass attempts for 273 yards, a touchdown and no interceptions.
