Reports for voluntary workouts
Rosen reported for the first day of the Cardinals' offseason program Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Since the Cardinals hired Kliff Kingsbury, Rosen has been the subject of trade rumors due to the coach's affinity for 2018 Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray, who opted to try his hand in the NFL instead of pursuing a career in MLB. Throughout the offseason, it has been reported that a number of teams have inquired about Rosen, and at least one of them offered a formal trade proposal, per The Arizona Republic. The 10th overall pick in the 2018 draft, Rosen wasn't put in a position to succeed as…read more

Expected to attend OTAs
Rosen is expected to join the Cardinals at OTAs on Monday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: While many players who are subject to trade talks have opted to sit out OTAs with their current clubs, that's not the case with Rosen, who is believed to be on the block. He generated a lackluster rookie campaign, completing just 55.0 percent of his pass attempts on his way to an 11:14 TD:INT. However, that won't deter at least a few teams from seeking out the services of the 10th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Rosen doesn't fit the scheme of new head coach Kliff Kingsbury particularly…read more

Garnering trade interest
The Cardinals are shopping Rosen, according to Joel Klatt of Fox Sports. "There are three teams that I have heard and I know are very interested in Josh Rosen and that's New England, that's the New York Giants, and that's the L.A. Chargers," Klatt said on Fox Sports 1's "Undisputed" program Wednesday. "One of those have already offered a second-round pick."
Analysis: The puzzle pieces continue to fall into place regarding Rosen's fate. Putting two and two together, the Cardinals' hiring of Kliff Kingsbury in January followed comments the coach made while at Texas Tech last fall in which he said he "would take him [then Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray] with the first pick of the draft" if he could. Kingsbury has just that opportunity with Arizona, but the decision will come one year removed from the Cards trading up to select Rosen with the 10th overall…read more

Could be target for Washington
The Redskins may be interested in acquiring Rosen if the Cardinals make him available for trade, Matthew Paras of The Washington Times reports.
Analysis: With rumors about Arizona drafting Kyler Murray gaining steam, it's only natural for quarterback-needy teams to inquire about Rosen's availability. The No. 10 overall pick from last year's draft struggled through a disastrous rookie season in which he completed 55.2 percent of passes for 5.8 yards per attempt, but it's only fair to mention that he was stuck with an atrocious offensive line and overmatched coaching staff. Optimistic suitors can make a comparison to Jared Goff, who managed just…read more

Gets vocal support from Kingsbury
New head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Tuesday that Rosen "is our guy," Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Trade rumors involving Rosen started Monday when Kyler Murray declared his intention to focus on football rather than baseball. Kingsbury is known to have an affinity for the 21-year-old quarterback prospect, having said in October that he'd draft Murray at No. 1 overall if he could. It just so happens Kingsbury now has that opportunity, though he doesn't actually have final say over personnel decisions in Arizona. Regardless of how he actually feels, Kingsbury has a clear incentive to vocalize…read more

Has confidence of new coach
New head coach Kliff Kingsbury said he won't judge Rosen by his rookie-year film, adding that the young quarterback is "one of the most talented throwers you'll see," ESPN.com's Josh Weinfuss reports.
Analysis: Stuck in a poorly designed offense with terrible blocking, the UCLA product completed just 55.2 percent of his passes for 5.8 yards per attempt as a rookie, taking 45 sacks and committing 19 turnovers (14 INTs, five lost fumbles) in 14 games. Kingsbury points to throwing ability and toughness as causes for optimism moving forward, perhaps hoping he can be the Sean McVay to Rosen's Jared Goff. The Cardinals have ample cap space to help with the rebuilding process, not to mention the first pick…read more

Rude welcoming to NFL persists
Rosen completed 18 of 34 passes for 149 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 27-24 loss to Seattle.
Analysis: Rosen's rookie campaign will be remembered as one to forget. The No. 10 overall pick in April's draft slugged his way through a 3-10 campaign as a starter while owning a less than stellar 11:14 TD:INT ratio. The conclusion to this 2018 campaign was especially excruciating, as Rosen exceeded 150 yards passing just once in his past seven outings, while carrying a streak of four straight games without a touchdown pass into Sunday's season finale against Seattle. With Larry Fitzgerald possibly…read more

Struggles, pulled early again
Rosen completed 12 of 23 passes for 87 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed four times for 49 yards in the Cardinals' 31-9 loss to the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: Granted, he managed to avoid any turnovers, but Rosen was woefully ineffective once again as far as moving the Cardinals with any type of consistency. Arizona's one touchdown came on a Larry Fitzgerald scoring throw off a trick play, and the offense endured a trio of three-and-outs with Rosen at the helm. Mike Glennon finally replaced him in the fourth quarter for the second straight week, coming into the contest with 5:22 remaining. Rosen is likely back under center for the Week 17 finale…read more

Benched in blowout
Rosen completed 13 of 22 passes for 132 yards and two interceptions during Sunday's 40-14 loss to Atlanta. He added eight yards and a lost fumble on two carries.
Analysis: Sunday started off well enough. Following an opening punt by Atlanta, Rosen completed three of four passes for 63 yards to set up a David Johnson touchdown run. The luck ran out there. On the next Arizona drive, Rosen's pass was tipped, intercepted, and returned by Deion Jones for a touchdown. Following two more turnovers and back-to-back fourth-quarter drives in which the Cardinals lost yardage, the rookie was benched as veteran Mike Glennon finished out the game. Head coach Steve Wilks said…read more

Throws for 240 yards
Rosen completed 26 of 41 passes for 240 yards and one interception during Sunday's 17-3 loss to Detroit.
Analysis: Rosen has had better days, and no one was more delighted about his struggles than Lions All-Pro corner Darius Slay, who jumped the rookie for a pick-six late in the third quarter to give Detroit a 10-0 lead. This was certainly a disappointing performance at home, especially after pulling off a victory against Aaron Rodgers last week in Green Bay. Rosen is averaging just 167.6 passing yards and one touchdown over his last five starts and is not a recommended fantasy play in any format.

Another underwhelming outing
Rosen completed 11 of 26 passes for 149 yards without a touchdown or interception and added 32 yards on two rushing attempts in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Packers.
Analysis: Rosen had thrown at least one interception in each of his past six starts, so avoiding such a turnover was a step in the right direction. Unfortunately, the rookie quarterback also took a step back in terms of completion percentage, as his 42.3 percent mark was his second-lowest of the season. The 2018 first-rounder's worth a speculative stash in keeper or dynasty formats, but redraft owners don't want to touch Rosen with a 10-foot pole with the fantasy playoffs looming. That should remain the…read more

Throws for 105 yards
Rosen completed 12 of 19 pass attempts for 105 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Sunday's 45-10 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Rosen got off to a quick start, hitting Larry Fitzgerald for a 25-yard touchdown just minutes into the game. Unfortunately, he struggled to move the ball after that point and finished averaging an underwhelming 5.5 yards per attempt. Rosen also threw an interception which led to a score, pushing his TD:INT to 8:10 over his last six games. The rookie will look to bounce back with a better effort next Sunday against the Packers.

Three touchdowns in loss to Raiders
Rosen completed nine of 20 attempts, accounting for 136 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions during Sunday's 23-21 loss to Oakland.
Analysis: In what was his seventh career start, Rosen completed just 45 percent of his attempts, with a season-low 136 yards through the air against an Oakland defense that entered Week 11 with an average passer rating of 113.0 against (third-worst in the NFL). The 21-year-old signal caller has been loose with the football through much of his rookie campaign, with at least one interception in five straight games -- and an astronomical 11 total turnovers since Week 6. An ominous matchup awaits Sunday, as…read more

Picked off twice in loss to Chiefs
Rosen completed 22 of 39 attempts for 208 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Sunday's 26-14 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: The rookie has been plagued by turnovers of late, with seven interceptions and three fumbles (two lost) over the past four weeks. Playing behind a Cardinals offensive line that entered Week 10 allowing 57 quarterback hits on the year (10th-most), Rosen has been unable to get comfortable in the pocket all season. The fact that he's completed fewer than 58 percent of his passes in six of seven appearances is a testament to that. He could be a viable streaming option in Week 11 against Oakland,…read more

Throws two late TDs in win
Rosen completed 23 of 40 pass attempts for 252 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Sunday's 18-15 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: Although Rosen was held in check for much of the afternoon, he came through when it mattered most. The rookie threw a 13-yard touchdown pass to Larry Fitzgerald early in the fourth quarter and found Christian Kirk from nine yards out for the winning score with just 34 seconds left. Rosen set a new career high in passing yards while throwing multiple touchdown passes for the first time in his career, and although it's early, perhaps the change to interim offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich will…read more

Practices in full Thursday
Rosen (toe) was a full practice participant Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Rosen has come full circle in one week's time. Since a dreadful five-turnover performance last Thursday against the Broncos in which he suffered a sprained left toe, he has got rid of a walking boot Monday and returned to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday before Thursday's development. In his previous start against Sunday's opponent (the 49ers), Rosen completed 10 of 25 passes for 170 yards and one touchdown Week 5.

Returns to practice Wednesday
Rosen (toe) took part in the portion of Wednesday's practice that was open to the media, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Rosen struggled through the worst performance of his brief career last week against the Broncos, tossing three interceptions -- two of which were returned for touchdowns -- fumbling three times (losing two of them) and getting sacked six times. During one of the takedowns late in the game, Rosen came up limping. Afterward, he was diagnosed with a sprained left toe, necessitating a walking boot to take pressure off his foot. Rosen removed the boot Monday and returned to practice Wednesday,…read more

Out of walking boot
Rosen (toe) ditched his walking boot Monday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. "He's doing well and he should be ready to go on Wednesday," coach Steve Wilks said.
Analysis: Rosen suffered a sprained toe during a horrific performance last Thursday against the Broncos in which he tossed three interceptions (two of them returned for touchdowns) and fumbled three times (two lost). In the wake of the loss, he suffered a sprained toe, which required a walking boot on his left foot to alleviate pressure. While he's expected to miss no time as a result of the injury, Rosen won't be able to prove his health (or lack thereof) until the Cardinals log an official practice…read more

Not practicing Monday
Rosen (toe) isn't participating in the open portion of Monday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: The Cardinals are opening the week with an on-field practice after losing to Denver by 35 points Thursday night and then promoting Byron Leftwich to replace Mike McCoy as their offensive coordinator. Rosen suffered a toe sprain during the ugly performance, but coach Steve Wilks expects the rookie quarterback to be ready for Sunday's home game against San Francisco. The Cardinals will release their first injury report of the week Wednesday afternoon.

Rosen was diagnosed with a sprained left toe following Thursday's 45-10 loss to the Broncos, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. Coach Steve Wilks said he expects Rosen to be OK for the Cardinals' next game Week 8 against the 49ers.
Analysis: Coming off a solid showing in a loss to the Vikings in Week 6, Rosen looked the part of a 21-year-old rookie against the Broncos. The quarterback threw three interceptions -- two of which were returned for scores -- and lost two of his three fumbles while being sacked six times and hit on five other occasions. It's unsurprising that he was banged up amid the ongoing harassment from the Denver defense, though it appears Rosen only escaped with a minor injury. He'll benefit from the extended rest…read more

Downplays toe injury
Rosen sustained a left toe injury late in Thursday's 45-10 loss to the Broncos, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rosen didn't miss a snap and said after the game that he's "fine" and was "just being soft" when he took a spill late in the fourth quarter. Even before getting hurt, the rookie quarterback struggled through the toughest outing of his young career, tossing three interceptions -- two of which were returned for touchdowns -- and losing two fumbles. The injury doesn't appear overly severe, but more information should become available as he is evaluated. Rosen will have a couple extra days to rest…read more

Throws pair of pick-sixes in loss
Rosen completed 21 of 39 passes for 194 yards with a touchdown and three interceptions in the Cardinals' 45-10 loss to the Broncos on Thursday. He also rushed once for 14 yards and fumbled on three occasions, losing two and recovering one.
Analysis: Four days after throwing for a career-high 240 yards against the Vikings, the rookie saw the harshest of downturns Thursday. Rosen's nightmare outing began early, when he was victimized for a pick-six by Todd Davis on the second play of the game. The Broncos struck again later in the period, with Chris Harris, Jr. doing the honors to the tune of a 53-yard scamper into the end zone off Rosen's second pick. In all, the 2018 first-round pick was responsible for a whopping five turnovers, took six…read more

Posts career high in passing
Rosen completed 21 of 31 pass attempts for 240 yards with no touchdowns and one interception during Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Rosen completed an impressive 68 percent of his passes as he set a career high in yardage. He failed to connect on a touchdown pass and threw an interception, but he faced relentless pressure on the day -- he was sacked four times as well -- and showed some poise in the face of it. The Cardinals have been held to 17 points in two of Rosen's three starts this season, and he's going to need time to settle in before he can contribute as a viable fantasy option. He'll face another formidable pass…read more

Modest stats in Sunday's win
Rosen completed just 10 of 25 passes for 170 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-18 win at San Francisco.
Analysis: Rosen's second career start began with a bang. He tossed a 75-yard touchdown to fellow rookie Christian Kirk on Arizona's first play from scrimmage. Things didn't go well from there, although Rosen was hurt by some bad drops. He's already shown a little more competence moving the offense than veteran Sam Bradford, although that's not really saying much. In Week 6, Rosen will take on a Minnesota pass defense that hasn't been nearly as strong as expected this year.

Shows promise in first career start
Rosen completed 15 of 27 passes for 180 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks. He added 13 rushing yards on two carries.
Analysis: It was far from a perfect day, but Rosen showed plenty of promise in his first career start that saw the rookie complete a number of impressive passes, including a 22-yard touchdown in double coverage to wideout Chad Williams. Had his receivers not dropped at least half of a dozen other catchable passes, Rosen's numbers would have better captured how promising the quarterback's performance really was.

Rosen will be the Cardinals' starting quarterback moving forward, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Coach Steve Wilks made the announcement Monday afternoon, confirming that the rookie first-round pick will replace Sam Bradford under center. The Cardinals have plenty of other issues on offense, but there wasn't much point putting Bradford back on the field after he turned the ball over six times while leading the team to an 0-3 start with just 20 points scored along the way.

Replaces Bradford in loss
Speaking after Sunday's 16-14 loss to the Bears, coach Steve Wilks declined to commit to either Rosen or Sam Bradford as the starter for Week 4 against Seattle, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rosen entered Sunday's game with about five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter after Bradford committed turnovers on three consecutive possessions. The rookie threw a fourth-down interception of his own to essentially seal the game, but not before leading Arizona to the brink of field-goal range. Wilks said he wants to watch film of Sunday's loss before making a decision on the Week 4 starter.

Could see action this week
Rosen has been told to be prepared to play this week against the Bears if Sam Bradford's struggles continue, Fox's Jay Glazer reports.
Analysis: This might not be as earth-shattering news as it seems - all backups are frequently told to be ready for game action, after all. However, Rosen is the last of the first-round quarterbacks to see some form of game action, and it's undeniable that the Cardinals have been in dire straits with Bradford at the helm. The calls for Rosen are only going to get louder.

Still the backup quarterback
Rosen will remain the Cardinals' backup quarterback for Sunday's game versus the Bears, Kyle Odegard of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: The Arizona offense has been unable to get going under the direction of veteran signal-caller Sam Bradford this season, sitting at the very bottom of the league with 350 total yards after two games. Thus arises the logical question: why not turn over the keys to Rosen, a 2018 first-round pick? On Wednesday, head coach Steve Wilks ended such queries in the short term by naming Bradford the Week 3 starter. Although Rosen's professional debut awaits, Wilks' hand may eventually be forced if…read more

Set for backup role
Rosen (thumb) wasn't listed on the Cardinals' Week 1 injury report Wednesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Since hitting a teammate's helmet while throwing on Aug. 20, Rosen has tended to a swollen right thumb that didn't afford him action in Arizona's final two preseason games. With the release of the first injury report of the regular season, Rosen finally has been given a clean bill of health as he prepares to back up Sam Bradford to begin his rookie campaign.

Rosen (thumb) won't play in the Cardinals' preseason game Thursday against the Broncos, Steve Wyche of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Although he has been able to throw on two different days after hitting a teammate's helmet with his hand Aug. 20, Rosen will be held out in the Cardinals' exhibition finale, likely as a precaution. No matter, he'll back up Sam Bradford to begin the regular season, so it remains to be seen when the rookie will get his next in-game reps.

Throws again Tuesday
Rosen (thumb) made throws during the part of Tuesday's practice open to the media, Kent Somers of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Rosen injured his thumb last Monday, Aug. 20 and subsequently was held out of Sunday's preseason contest in Dallas. The throwing session Tuesday marked his second since picking up the swollen appendage, but there's still the question of whether he'll suit up in the Cardinals' exhibition finale Thursday against the Broncos. If he does, Rosen likely will work in tandem with fellow reserve quarterback Mike Glennon, with Sam Bradford locked into the starting role for the time being.

Could play Thursday
Head coach Steve Wilks indicated that Rosen (thumb) could see playing time during Thursday's preseason finale against the Broncos, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Wilks said that he doesn't want Rosen to lose the progress he's made this summer, but the deciding factor in this decision will nonetheless be the status of the rookie's injured thumb. That Rosen even seems to have a decent chance of playing suggests the injury isn't anything long-term, and there's been no indication that Rosen won't be available for Week 1. If Wilks ultimately shuts him down, Mike Glennon would likely be in store for another large workload in Thursday's game.

Analysis: According to Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site, coach Steve Wilks said holding Rosen out was a combination of caution with Rosen's thumb in addition to Wilks wanting to see more of Mike Glennon, who's trying to convince the Cardinals to carry three quarterbacks into the regular season. There hasn't been any word on whether Rosen will see action in Thursday's preseason finale against the Broncos.

Uncertain for Sunday
Coach Steve Wilks said Rosen (thumb) will be a game-day decision for Sunday's exhibition against the Cowboys, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: After missing practice the previous two days, Rosen wore his helmet and threw some passes during Friday's session. The thumb injury doesn't seem like anything that will threaten his Week 1 availability, but it could impact Arizona's plans for Sunday. With Mike Glennon (forearm) also banged up and Sam Bradford the owner of a notoriously sketchy medical record, Wilks could turn to undrafted rookie Chad Kanoff for a significant portion of the contest. Bradford is expected to get the start.

Able to throw Friday
Rosen (right thumb) was spotted throwing during the open portion of Friday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: This news bodes well for the QB's chances of being available for Sunday's preseason game against the Cowboys, a contest in which coach Steve Wilks "has been coy about how long" his starting signal-caller, Sam Bradford, might play, per Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com.

Doesn't throw Thursday
Rosen (thumb) was in pads but didn't attempt a pass during warmups for Thursday's practice, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Instead, Rosen was contained to handoff drills as he recovers from a swollen right thumb. There's a chance he may make some throws once the cameras are off, which would help his case for taking the field Sunday in Dallas. Fortunately for the rookie, he has another session to prove that he'll be able to play through the pain this weekend.

Dealing with sore thumb
Rosen missed practice Wednesday due to a sore thumb, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: During Monday's session, Rosen's throwing hand hit a helmet and induced some swelling, which explains why he wasn't in pads Wednesday. He still expects to suit up for Sunday's exhibition at Dallas, but if the issue lingers, his status may come down to a game-time decision.

Misses practice Wednesday
Rosen didn't participate in practice Wednesday, Kent Somers of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Rosen was hanging around the Cardinals' quarterback group during the session without pads, so an injury likely is the reason behind his absence. Head coach Steve Wilks should clarify the situation during media availability later Wednesday.

Looks sharp in New Orleans
Rosen completed 10 of 16 passes for 107 yards and a touchdown in Friday's preseason win over the Saints.
Analysis: After Sam Bradford played the first three drives and produced seven points, the Cardinals left many of their starters in the game to work with Rosen, who led the team to 10 points and a missed field goal in the second quarter. Rosen displayed good chemistry with 2017 third-round pick Chad Williams, but the real highlight was a dart into tight coverage to fellow rookie Christian Kirk for a 13-yard touchdown on 3rd-and-goal. With the Week 1 starting job probably out of his reach, the best Rosen…read more

Will get in-game reps with first team
Rosen is expected to work with the first-team offense during Friday's preseason game in New Orleans, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Rosen didn't show much in his pro debut Saturday, completing six of 13 passes for 41 yards. Frequently, he was running for his life due to poor blocking, so it'll be interesting to see how he fares with the first-team offensive line and potentially some of the Cardinals' top-line skill-position players. Still, though, Rosen is all but embedded as the clear backup to starter Sam Bradford, who is slated to play more than one series Friday.

Up-and-down preseason debut
Rosen was 6-of-13 for 41 yards without a touchdown or interception in Saturday's preseason win over San Diego.
Analysis: Rosen had an up-and-down night and he didn't get much help from his offensive line as he was constantly under pressure and he received several bad snaps from his center. He'll likely get plenty of playing time this preseason, but after one game he didn't look set to challenge for the starting job.

Competing for backup gig
Rosen will compete with Mike Glennon for the backup quarterback job behind starter Sam Bradford, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: The Cardinals traded up to draft Rosen at No. 10 in this year's draft, and coach Steve Wilks didn't shy away from saying the rookie could earn the top QB gig by Week 1. However, Wilks called Bradford the starter in the initial press conference of training camp, leaving the competition open for his backup. During Saturday's practice, Rosen worked with the second-team offense, per Kyle Odegard of the team's official site, but considering Wilks' comments, he likely will swap such snaps with…read more
