Gardner Minshew II A Trade Target?
4 years agoTeams have been calling the Jacksonville Jaguars to express interest in a possible trade for quarterback Gardner Minshew II. With the Jaguars fully expected to take Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence with the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming draft, teams are calling to see if Minshew is available. Minshew does have starting experience and is young, so teams could see him as a nice fit as a backup quarterback or as an insurance policy if the Jags are interested in dealing him. The 24-year-old started nine games in 2020 before getting injured and benched, but he did manage to throw for over 2,250 yards with 16 touchdowns and five interceptions. While Minshew mania swept the nation in 2019, he's unlikely to fall into a starting role somewhere else if he's traded by Jacksonville this offseason.
