The Facts: We've reached the point after the draft at which most teams are taking a step back to view their rosters now that the dust has settled. That doesn't mean roster movement is finished. HC Doug Marrone became the latest to leave the door open for another potential addition or two to be made to his team before training camp. One could come at the game's most important position. "Yeah, he's our quarterback, there's no doubt about it," Marrone said of Minshew. "But one of the things that we're doing is we're still looking to make sure that we're upgraded at each position. So we're still looking. There are some veterans out there that we might look at to bring in along with the young guys that we have."
Diehards Line:
Minshew was a spark the Jaguars' franchise needed badly in 2019, and an unexpected one after Nick Foles' Week 1 broken collarbone cut his season in half. Minshew's 4-4 mark through eight starts at least kept the Jaguars in the conversation, and thanks to his exciting, unorthodox play (and a stellar mustache), Minshew Mania was born. Minshew's play inspired enough confidence for the Jaguars to move Foles and offload his hefty contract. But it's not an ironclad pairing; another quarterback, perhaps a veteran as Marrone mentioned, could come in and take the job. Andy Dalton became a free agent on Thursday and he was quickly linked to the Jaguars because of his relationship with offensive coordinator Jay Gruden when both men were in Cincinnati. Cam Newton is the other big name veteran on the open market, but the dots aren’t connected quite as easily between him and the Jags -- other than Leonard Fournette's push to get the Jaguars to sign Newton. The 2015 NFL MVP was released by the Panthers earlier this offseason and remains unsigned.
