Jags QB Gardner Minshew has become the darling in the NFL after coming in to replace injured QB Nick Foles.
Earlier this week Minshew went viral when this picture of him looking like a 70’s porn star went viral on Twitter.

One of the best (and rarest) traits a person can have is simply being comfortable in their own skin. Gardner Minshew is that. And that’s why @Jaguars fans are going to love their new starting QB. pic.twitter.com/JK1EB4vqqe

The Texans are 7 1/2 point favorites over the Jaguars but I saw Gardner Minshew get off the team plane and I’ve got Jacksonville by 35. pic.twitter.com/OqRHUK3gBW

Of course it’s not surprising that someone who dresses like Uncle Rico has some weird habits.
According to Mike Garofalo, Jags players confirmed that Minshew stretched in nothing but a jock strap before today’s game.
Per @MikeGarafolo, #Jaguars starting QB Gardner Minshew III stretches in the pre-game locker room in nothing but a jockstrap. Again, our hero 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Jags source to me the other day: “Who even wears jockstraps, let alone stretch in just that? It’s awesome.” Point is they love the guy and the fact he’s his own person and doesn’t get flustered. That’s part of why they think they’ll be OK with him. https://t.co/bEUzVqAcCM

Apparently, this is something that he’s been doing since college.
