The Jacksonville Jaguars are starting their season without Blake Bortles as the starting quarterback for the first time since 2014. It could have been another rookie taking his place, but count wide receiver Dede Westbrook excited that it’s now Super Bowl MVP quarterback Nick Foles.
Speaking after practice on Tuesday afternoon, Westbrook says that caliber of quarterback is what this team has been “lacking” in recent years.
WR Dede Westbrook: ''Nothing against Blake (Bortles) at all, Blake is a great friend of mine, but to be out there with Nick (Foles), a Super Bowl MVP quarterback, obviously that’s what we’ve been lacking.
