Jaguars HC Urban Meyer: We're not fielding trade offers for Gardner Minshew at this point
The Jacksonville Jaguars will likely use the first-overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft on Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence, but that doesn't mean the franchise is going to part ways with Gardner Minshew.
According to NFL.com's Kevin Patra, Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer said Friday that Jacksonville isn't fielding trade offers for Minshew at this point.
The Jaguars' stance could change before the draft rolls around and teams have reportedly called the franchise to inquire about Minshew's availability.
It's unclear which teams are showing interest in Minshew. However, teams like the New England Patriots, Denver Broncos and New York Jets could use a little competition at quarterback entering the 2021 campaign.
Minshew had a solid rookie season in 2019, but struggled in 2020 and ended up splitting time with Jake Luton and Mike Glennon. In eight starts, the 24-year-old went 1-7, completing 66.1% of his passes for 2,259 yards and 16 touchdowns against five interceptions. He was also sacked 27 times and finished with a 51.7 quarterback rating.
