Adam Schefter has named two quarterbacks who could be traded before the deadline.

On ESPN's "Unsportsmanlike,' the NFL insider was asked if there was a chance that any starting quarterback would be moved to a different team. Schefter mentioned Jacoby Brissett of the Arizona Cardinals and Daniel Jones of the Indianapolis Colts could be traded, but that's not a guarantee.

"I don't see that right now outside of, like, a Jacoby Brissett or Daniel Jones," Schefter said. "No, I don't see it."

Brissett is no longer the starting quarterback for Arizona, as the team named Gardner Minshew QB 1. Through eight games this year, Brissett has completed 63.3% of his passes for 1,719 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions.

More on Jacoby Brissett and Daniel Jones

"That's not a fun phone call," Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said about letting Brissett know that he's no longer the starter, per Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com. "There's no book for that. There is a human element to it. I have a lot of respect for Jacoby the person. I have a lot of respect for Jacoby the player. This was not all on him. But the position that those guys sign up for, that's the deal."

Jones has also struggled this year. Through eight games, Jones has completed 60.4% of his passes for 1,542 yards, five touchdowns, and nine interceptions. The Colts have not made a change at quarterback, as they are sticking with Jones for now.

“Yeah, Daniel will be our starting quarterback,’’ coach Shane Steichen said Monday afternoon, per FOX59. “Obviously, evaluating the tape (and) looking back at it, some things he could do better. There are some things we need to help him with moving forward. But I do feel that Daniel gives us the best chance to win right now.’’
