Sources: Jacksonville Jaguars trading QB Gardner Minshew to Philadelphia Eagles for conditional 2022 sixth-round pick

The Jacksonville Jaguars are trading QB Gardner Minshew II to the Philadelphia Eagles for a conditional 2022 sixth-round pick, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The sixth-round pick could go to a fifth-rounder if Minshew plays in 50 percent of the plays in three games this season, per sources.

The move comes after Jaguars coach Urban Meyer announced Wednesday that top overall pick Trevor Lawrence had won the starting job and will be under center for the Sept. 12 season opener in Houston against the Texans.

Minshew, who had been alternating practice days with the first-team offense with Lawrence throughout training camp, completed 17 of 29 passes for 196 yards with two interceptions (one in the end zone) in two preseason games.
