Gardner Minshew Named Starter For Week 14
5 years agoJacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Gardner Minshew will start in Week 14 against the Chargers over Nick Foles, according to head coach Doug Marrone. Foles was benched in the Week 13 loss to the Bucs after throwing an interception and fumbling twice. Minshew is back in the fold after becoming an NFL phenomenon when Foles went down with a broken collarbone in the season opener. He certainly has more mobility than Foles and showed that he can create from nothing, but Minshew is still more of a midrange QB2 if he starts the rest of the way. The Chargers Defense won't be a cake walk, especially since they just got safeties Derwin James and Adrian Phillips back from Injured Reserve.
