“Learning a new offense anywhere you go is the first goal of a quarterback,” Blough said Friday, via Tyler Drake of Arizona Sports. “You come in and pride yourself on studying it and working it, and I feel comfortable. They have done a good job at getting me ready.”
Blough has not started a game since he started five in 2019, his only career starts. He has not thrown a pass in a regular-season game since Week 16 of the 2020 season.
“To be standing here before you, I’m blessed,” Blough said. “I’m thankful for everybody who have helped me stand where I’m standing right now with this opportunity this week. I hope they all know I’m just going to cut it loose and are proud. I’m just thankful.”
Blough has nothing to lose except a game, of course, with the Cardinals already out of postseason contention.
