The Jaguars are “pretty much done” with their quarterback search, head coach Doug Marrone told Adam Schein of SiriusXM (Twitter link). Marrone didn’t specifically address questions about Cam Newton, but it sounds like the Jaguars won’t be in the mix for the former MVP.

The Jaguars signed Mike Glennon earlier this month, giving them three quarterbacks behind presumptive starter Gardner Minshew. They’ve also got Joshua Dobbs – Ben Roethlisberger‘s one-time backup – and sixth-round rookie Jake Luton on hand. That leaves little room for Newton, despite all of his career accomplishments.
Early on in his free agency, Newton was set on being a starter. Now, he’s eased his expectations. Newton is reportedly willing to sign on as someone’s backup QB, though he might not be willing to completely slash his asking price. Earlier this spring, former No. 1 overall pick Jameis Winston signed with the Saints on a one-year deal with a paltry base salary of $1.1MM. We have a hard time imagining Newton – who has made $100MM+ over the years – doing the same.
With four QBs on hand, the Jaguars are content with what they have. That means they won’t be in the mix for Newton or Joe Flacco. And, it probably goes without saying, but they won’t make a play for old friend Blake Bortles either.
A picture is worth 1000 words
Lol. And hes dressed for church.
Maybe not 1000 words but a handful of chuckles…
It’s not his stats, talent or his abilities. It’s his personality.
Would Cam really want to sign w/ the Jags? I mean they’re ‘rebuilding’ with the same people that built that awful roster in the first place.
David Caldwell has been the GM since 2013. His teams have a 36-76 record, with three 3rd and 4th place finishes.
But they did lead the league in fining players!
The Jags will wait until Aaron Rodgers is 40 and then pay him $50M per.
How Caldwell still has a jon defies everything about the hiring/firing process in the NFL. Multiple head coaches, quarterbacks, draft busts, trade demands, bad contracts, and they literally hired then fired someone to over see him!
I guess at this point, you let him stink it up one more year and then let a new GM hire a new coach with Lawerence or Fields waiting at the top of the draft.
At least if they hire a black GM, they can grab another 3rd round pick. How sad of a statement that is. Throw in a black coach and they can get 2 extra picks!
They waited too long to pursue P-Diddy…lol.
No one wants Cam he’s too much of a showboat. Gone are the days of scoring not acting like a clown and going back to the sideline. Act classy this grabbing the chest flashing your teams logo or a super a shirt. You deserve to be sitting out. Maybe he can go hang out with Colin!
This post is so stupid, unless you ever scored a touchdown with 11 absolute animals trying to stop you I wouldn’t worry about what a person does in the end zone
They call that style of dressing “Primadonna” style
badco44,
Call it whatever the heck ya want. It doesn’t matter when ya ain’t employed !
I wish we lived in a world where coaches could be honest and just say: “We’re clearly tanking for Trevor Lawrence, 1-15 is the goal since 0-16 is too embarrassing. Shoutout to the 2011 Colts.”
Bad for the league’s image.
I see cam starting week one w/ the Washington redskins
Jags may be tanking for Trevor. But Trevor Lawrence is going to tank for New England – just put up a bum season so that you don’t go #1.
Cams EGO is in his way. He needs to learn Humility. So glad the Jaguars are not bringing that Show Boat Clown in.
