4 Players to watch as the Jaguars take on the Panthers
The Jaguars and the Panthers will face off in week 5 in an interesting matchup as both teams will be starting their backup quarterbacks due to injury.
Week 5 will feature the Jaguars taking on the 2-2 Carolina Panthers. Each team has players at quarterback that started the year as a backup but have looked impressive. The Panthers have Kyle Allen who is going to be starting once again for the Panthers as Cam Newton is still sidelined with a foot injury.
Though Gardner Minshew has been the backup the world has fallen in love with, Allen has quietly performed very well so far this season and will be on the lookout to prove himself against a solid Jacksonville defense.
