Rookie Trevor Lawrence and Tim Tebow are getting plenty of attention during the Jacksonville Jaguars’ organized team activities. Meanwhile, quarterback Gardner Minshew II seems like an afterthought, but it wasn’t always like this. The Washington State product took the NFL by storm in his rookie campaign and his gritty performance and everyman look gave birth to Minshewmania.
Nevertheless, the 2019 sixth-round pick was underwhelming last season and ended up losing his job. Heading into the 2021 season, Lawrence is set to be the starting quarterback, which leaves Minshew as the primary backup.
