Happy Monday, everyone! Here’s all the Jacksonville Jaguars news that’s fit to print... around the Internet. We’ve got salary cap hits for quarterbacks around the league, Nick Foles’ restructured contract news, and (of course) Yannick Ngakoue rumors.
Jaguars currently have NFL’s lowest cap hit at QB position
The Jacksonville Jaguars have a lot of problems, but having a lot of money tied into the quarterback position isn’t one of them. With just Gardner Minshew and Joshua Dobbs both on their rookie contracts, the Jaguars currently have the least amount of money invested into the quarterback position.

Nick Foles “grateful” for trade to Chicago Bears
Nick Foles wanted to be in Chicago. He made that perfectly clear.
In fact, Friday’s conference call with the new Chicago Bears quarterback was pretty much over and Foles easily could have hung up and gone on with the rest of his day. Instead, he wanted to make sure the reporter who asked the last question about his trade to Chicago got the answer she wanted.
After further clarification, Foles went on to give an answer that lasted three minutes and nine seconds, addressing the details of his trade and restructured contract with the Bears.

Coronavirus was “so much worse than I could have imagined”
Tony Boselli, one of the greatest offensive lineman of his era, recently spent five days in the hospital after he and his wife, Angie, tested positive for the coronavirus. While his wife never needed to be hospitalized and has made a full recovery, Boselli says that he is still in recovery after spending time in the ICU unit.

Jacksonville wants what for Yannick Ngakoue?
The Jacksonville Jaguars have reportedly begun fielding calls for star pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue, who’s repeatedly declared his “time is up” with the team following failed long-term contract negotiations. But reports indicating the Jags still value Ngakoue may not have been off-base, as the club is seeking at least a first-round draft pick in return for the defensive end.
