NFL Rumors: Josh McCown Being Monitored by Teams; Jets, Jaguars Linked

Veteran quarterback Josh McCown could return to the NFL later this season after he finishes coaching his son's high school football team in Rusk, Texas, according to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports.

The Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Jets reportedly expressed interest in adding the 42-year-old in the offseason, and they are among the teams still monitoring him as the season progresses. Per La Canfora, the quarterback could sign with a squad by Week 9 or 10 of the 2021 season.

McCown last started a regular-season game in 2018, and he spent last year with the Philadelphia Eagles practice squad before finishing the season with the Houston Texans.
