The Arizona Cardinals have nothing left to play for, but they’re still making a quarterback change.

Coach Bruce Arians announced Monday that Drew Stanton will start in favor of Blaine Gabbert on Sunday against the New York Giants.

BA said the team will start Drew Stanton at QB this week.

Stanton had been playing ahead of Gabbert until November, when a knee injury knocked him out.
