Opinion: Should Jalen Hurts, who is nursing a sprained shoulder, miss Saturday's game against the Cowboys, the Eagles have a more than capable backup QB in Gardner Minshew -- thanks to Urban Meyer's incompetence.
. For little to no cost. From the Jacksonville Jaguars.
But he was a sigil of the old era in northern Florida, so Meyer put him on the trading block. Roseman acquired him for the whopping price of a sixth-round pick, and suddenly Philadelphia had a young, viable insurance policy in case Hurts got injured or regressed after a solid, but uneven, rookie 2020.
Since 2019, Minshew's 93.9 passer rating ranks 19th among 42 NFL quarterbacks with at least 20 starts — one spot above Hurts but more than 10 points below the MVP candidate's breakthrough 2022 number . His advanced stats over the same timeframe clock him at the Jared Goff/Jacoby Brissett level: not ideal, but useful in a pinch and above average for a backup.
