BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: We saw bad Gardner Minshew in a revenge game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Colts backup quarterback completed 33 of 55 passes for 329 yards but had just one touchdown compared to three interceptions in the divisional loss. If there is one positive takeaway, though, it is that the Colts trusted Minshew to throw the ball over 50 times.
Gardner Minshew’s stats this season…
• 3-0 record
• 68.7 completion %
• 553 passing yards
• 2 TDs - 0 INTs
• 95.1 passer rating pic.twitter.com/6uGNbrL5IH— NFL Stats (@NFL_Stats) October 9, 2023
Minshew will be leading the Colts offense for the foreseeable future with reports surfacing that Anthony Richardson may be facing season-ending shoulder surgery, even though his next two matchups (Cleveland and New Orleans) are bad for any quarterback, much less an average one.
With six teams on bye in Week 7, difficult choices must be made. That means Minshew is firmly on the waiver wire radar despite facing down a terrifying Cleveland defense that is allowing 11.6 fantasy points per game to the quarterback position this season.
