Jake Luton To Start Sunday, Gardner Minshew Out Again
4 years agoJacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Jake Luton will make his third start in Week 11 against the undefeated Steelers while Gardner Minshew II (thumb) resumes throwing. Luton went 18-for-35 for 169 yards, one touchdown and one interception in the Week 10 loss to the Packers. Jacksonville isn't putting too much on the 24-year-old's plate and is using him like a game manager with Minshew sidelined. Minshew won't be guaranteed the starting job back when he's healthy, but Luton hasn't really stood out so far in his first two NFL starts. Pittsburgh boasts one of the most fearsome defenses in the league, so we don't expect Luton to put up impressive numbers this weekend. He'll be a desperation QB2 in superflex leagues.
