Cardinals quarterback Carson Beck signs rookie contract as camp begins

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Beck signed his four-year rookie contract on Wednesday, the team announced.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapaport reported the deal is worth $7.4 million.

Additionally on Wednesday, Arizona signed defensive lineman Coziah Izzard and placed fourth-round rookie defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor on injured reserve with a torn meniscus.

Beck was the Cardinals’ last draft choice to sign on the dotted line and among the final picks to sign around the NFL.

Cardinals players were scheduled to report to training camp on Wednesday ahead of the first practice on Thursday.

Beck joined Arizona as a third-round pick (No. 65 overall) after spending last year with the Miami Hurricanes.

The third quarterback taken in the draft after Fernando Mendoza and Ty Simpson went in the first round, Beck completed 72.4% of his passes for 3,813 yards and 30 touchdowns to 12 interceptions across the Hurricanes’ run to the national championship game.

He’s now a part of a quarterbacks room that includes a pair of veterans in Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew.
