2022 Fantasy Outlook
Once the Jaguars took Trevor Lawrence first overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, Minshew's days as a starting option for the team were numbered. Eventually, the 2019 sixth-rounder was shipped off to Philadelphia for a sixth-round pick at the end of the preseason. Minshew proved to be a good addition for the Eagles, winning both games he started in the absence of Jalen Hurts. While the 27-year-old didn't come close to matching Hurts' rushing production, Minshew had the edge in completion rate (67.2 vs 61.3), yards per attempt (7.4 vs 7.3) and frequency of 20-plus yard passes (3.5 per game vs 2.9). As things stand, the Washington State product profiles as one of the better backup QBs in the league, though it wouldn't surprise us if a team needing an experienced signal caller tries to trade for Minshew at some point in the coming months.

Signing with Colts
The Colts have agreed to terms with Minshew, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Minshew's one-year deal is for $3.5 million (fully guaranteed) and could be worth up to $5.5 million with incentives. The 2019 sixth-rounder joins the Colts a day after the team officially released veteran signal-caller Matt Ryan. The addition of Minshew gives Indy an option with NFL starting experience ahead of the 2023 season, but it remains to be seen how the rest of the QB depth chart will end up shaking out, with the franchise likely to continue bolstering the position, quite possibly via next month's draft.

2019
Minshew Mania died a quiet death last season, thanks to a midseason thumb injury and then not getting the starting job back immediately when healthy. It’s not that Minshew regressed; he was pretty much the same as the year before — his TD rate, INT rate and YPA were basically unchanged, and his bad-pass percentage (18.7) and aDOT (8.0) were again both middle of the pack. But therein lies the problem — little to no growth for what was already a middling QB. If Minshew isn’t traded, he’ll back up first overall pick Trevor Lawrence. If he is traded (or pressed into service via a Lawrence injury), he could still have value in two-QB leagues. Despite limited arm strength, Minshew is effective going downfield, and his mobility help his numbers.
