From the article

Any team trading for the statuesque Brissett – he has 73 mostly unremarkable NFL starts on his résumé – would have to pick up the remainder of his $9.7 million base salary, which is more than three times new QB1 Minshew's base compensation. Given Brissett was just demoted to third string in the desert, the better approach might be to wait and see if he's released after the deadline.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Brissett's $9.7M salary and third-string status make him poor trade value.

The source identifies Brissett as a potential trade deadline candidate for teams seeking short-term QB help, but notes he has 73 mostly unremarkable NFL starts and was just demoted to third string in Arizona; any team trading for him would have to pick up the remainder of his $9.7 million base salary, more than three times new QB1 Minshew's base compensation, making waiting for a potential release after the deadline the better approach.
