JACKSONVILLE — Gardner Minshew was back on the field for the first time in nearly two months Sunday and seemingly did enough to reclaim Jacksonville’s starting quarterback job.
But he will have to wait along with everyone else for coach Doug Marrone to make a decision on the team’s most volatile position.
Minshew threw for 178 yards and a touchdown in a 31-10 loss to Tennessee, most of it against a prevent defense, and looked to be the Jaguars’ best option to win games down the stretch. Marrone, though, declined to name a starter moving forward.
“I haven’t spoken to both guys so just out of respect for them,” Marrone said following the team’s 12th consecutive loss, one shy of tying the franchise record.
