Jaguars Trade for Ewers, Mullens in Jeopardy | Jacksonville Jaguars News

The Jacksonville Jaguars are shaking up their quarterback room with a bold trade for Quinn Ewers, signaling they believe he’s ready to compete for a roster spot — and that could spell trouble for Nick Mullens, who also happens to be the team’s offensive coordinator. Ewers, entering his second year, hasn’t dazzled in camp or preseason, throwing just three passes last season. With backup options Carter Bradley and Joey Aguilar underwhelming too, the Jags opted for fresh blood — and Ewers’ cheap contract makes him a low-risk gamble. While cutting Mullens would save $1.2M, there’s still $1.3M in dead money, but the move underscores the team’s urgency to upgrade at QB. This isn’t a fix-all, but it’s clear the Jaguars aren’t waiting — and Mullens may be on borrowed time. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
