Chad Henne was brought to the Jacksonville Jaguars as one of the top ranked backups a few years ago. His experience starting with the Miami Dolphins, his moderate record as a starter, and his basic competencies made him a solid option behind the struggling Blaine Gabbert.
Gabbert never surpassed Henne and found himself replaced by the veteran backup. Henne managed some moderate success with the Jaguars before ultimately stalling by game three of the 2014 season.
2014 was the season Henne’s role changed. He was no longer expected to be the backup for the Jaguars.
