Few players have underwent more adversity than Blake Bortles did entering the 2017 season.
Bortles has went through an incredible number of highs and lows since being drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2014. After coming off of what was by far the worst season of his career, Bortles is now playing some of the best football that Jacksonville has seen in quite some time.
An unimpressive 2016 season followed by a concerning preseason in 2017 had many fans ready to admit that Blake Bortles’ career in Jacksonville was as good as over. The end of his disappointing 2016 season had many optimistic that a fresh start with a new head coach and a fairly new offensive coordinator was exactly what Bortles needed to rebound in 2017.
