Who is Gardner Minshew? Get to Know the Jaguars Rookie Quarterback

The Gardner Minshew era has begun in Jacksonville. With starter Nick Foles potentially out for the season after breaking his left clavicle during Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, Minshew is set to take over under center.

Minshew, 23, was drafted by the Jaguars in the sixth round in the 2019 NFL draft out of Washington State. The rookie quarterback from Flowood, Miss., began his college football career in 2015 at Northwest Mississippi Community College and transferred to East Carolina in 2016. He spent two seasons with the Pirates before enrolling as a graduate transfer at Washington State in the fall of 2018.
