The Jacksonville Jaguars had a disappointing season as they finished off with a record of 6-10. However, their rookie quarterback Gardner Minshew played phenomenally as he showed flashes of star potential. According to Pro Football Focus, Minshew led the entire league in passer rating on throws 20+ yards downfield.

“I got two and a half months right now to work my tail off to be as ready as I can be for my team,” Minshew said. “We’ll show back up and I’m gonna try to prove I’m the best guy for my team and that I can help us win games. Anything beyond that is beyond my control.”
