Team unaware until after Week 7’s loss to the Chargers
X-rays taken this week revealed that Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew II has multiple fractures and a strained ligament in his right thumb, league sources told ESPN. Minshew has had discomfort in his thumb since Jacksonville’s Oct. 11 game at Houston, a source told ESPN. He did not tell the team about the pain until after the last game, a 39-29 loss to the Chargers, which led to a postgame X-ray in Los Angeles. (ESPN)
Nerdy Football Analysis: The Jags are on bye this week, but we could see Mike Glennon in Week 9 against the Texans. Minshew is currently sitting as the QB14 in fantasy points per game among qualified quarterbacks.
