I don't know if the team is going to trade him, but I could see them benching him again next season. Even though I think that he definitely has potential and the team could possibly build with him as a starter. (And while the team didn' t win and his stats weren't amazing today, I saw some flashes/potential again in today's game). But unfortunately, what I think could work against Minshew (besides a new regime taking over and maybe wanting their own guy) is his draft status. As another poster said over on this forum a little while back, some people can't really look past that.

And he probably won't get the leeway/patience that a first round draft pick will get to grow and develop in the starter role. It really may come down to how he plays these last few weeks and where exactly the Jags end up drafting. If the team loses all three games, they will have a really high pick and they might be tempted to take a QB with that. (Especially if he doesn't play well) And even if he does, but the team still loses, they still might be tempted to take a QB as a potential starter.

I'm definitely rooting for Minshew, and I would like to see him stay with the Jags and be a starter. But you never know what could happen, especially when the team seems in such a disarray right now. I do recall several people speculating before and right after he was benched that other teams might want to trade for him. Someone may try and offer something for him.
