Gardner Minshew looking forward to return to Jacksonville as Colts new starting QB
Associated PressINDIANAPOLIS — When Gardner Minshew reflects on his magical 2019 season in Jacksonville, he cherishes the moment. Steichen and his offense also played key roles in Minshew’s decision to go to Indy, which also was willing to give him a real chance to fight for the starting job — even after selecting Richardson with the fourth overall pick in April’s draft. “Everything he does, whether it’s a team meeting, whether it’s a good-on-good period in practice, whether it’s watching one-on-ones — you all know me I’m going to talk trash and he’s going to talk back to me,” said linebacker Zaire Franklin, who leads the NFL with 69 tackles. It’s infectious and that’s what you want.” Steichen & Co. at least know they’re in good hands for the next four weeks as Richardson recovers from the injured AC joint in his right shoulder — something Indy lacked a year ago when three different starters won a total of four games. But when Minshew makes his first trip to his former team since the trade, it will bring back good, old days when Minshew was Jacksonville’s featured attraction.
