Many thought that would be the end of Minshew’s tenure in Jacksonville, especially with Lawrence on the way. “All I ask for is a chance, and they’ve said they’d give me that and they have with the reps that I’ve been given,” Minshew said. Minshew started the first seven games in 2020, throwing 13 touchdown passes and five interceptions, but he also took 22 sacks. Minshew regained the starting spot briefly, but he was sacked five times at Baltimore and missed several open receivers deep. And even though he remains in a competition for the starting job, most everyone expects Lawrence will earn the nod before the season opener.
