The Arizona Cardinals will not be drafting a quarterback with the third overall pick in the draft later this month and also will not draft one if they trade back in the first round.
However, they do have interest in a quarterback they could select later on in the draft.
According to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network, the Cardinals, in addition to the Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers and Las Vegas Raiders, have all expressed interest in Stanford quarterback Tanner McKee.
McKee is a 6-foot-5 5/8, 231-pound pocket passer with great arm strength.
He started two seasons for the Cardinal.
In 2022, he completed 62% of his passes for 2,947 yards, 13 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
He is not particularly mobile, but some projections have him getting selected as early as the third round.
He could be a target if he falls to Day 3 as a developmental player who could become at least a reliable backup in the league.
