Jaguars' comeback push comes up short in rookie QB Jake Luton's debut In his first career start, Jake Luton performed well but couldn't power the Jaguars all the way back against the Texans.

NOVEMBER 8, 2020 • USATODAY.COM

Exceeds 300 yards in debut Luton completed 26 of 38 pass attempts for 304 yards, one touchdown and one interception while scoring a 13-yard rushing touchdown in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Texans.

Impact Making his NFL debut, Luton completed an impressive 68 percent of his passes and averaged a healthy 8.0 yards per attempt. He connected with DJ Chark for a 73-yard touchdown early in the game and later added a 13-yard rushing score to pull his team within a field goal late in the fourth quarter. Gardner Minshew has yet to resume throwing while recovering from multiple injuries to his thumb, so Luton seems primed to build on a productive debut next Sunday against the Packers.

Primed for NFL debut Luton will start the first game of his NFL career Sunday against the Texans, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

Impact The rookie sixth-round pick was a healthy scratch for the first seven games of the season while Mike Glennon served as Jacksonville's backup quarterback, but he'll receive his first NFL opportunity Sunday with starter Gardner Minshew (thumb) sidelined. Luton completed 62 percent of his passes for 2.714 yards, 28 touchdowns and three interceptions during his final collegiate season at Oregon State, but he has yet to play any professional football with no preseason games this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The team was reportedly mulling a quarterback change before Minshew's injury was made public, so a strong debut from Luton could secure a longer look in the starting role.

Likely starter for Week 9 Luton will take starter reps in practice this week, paving the way for him to get the nod over Mike Glennon with Gardner Minshew (thumb) ruled out for Sunday's game against Houston...

Impact Starting Luton makes sense for the 1-6 Jaguars, who can see what they have in the rookie sixth-rounder rather than trot out Glennon, who has established himself as a subpar option under center over 22 NFL starts. Minshew has been playing through a fractured thumb, so there's a chance his recovery extends beyond this week and allows Luton to make multiple starts if the rookie proves himself capable. Luton threw for 2,714 yards with a tidy 28:3 TD:INT in 11 games as a senior at Oregon State.

Could start after bye week Luton will be in the mix to start Week 9 against the Texans if Gardner Minshew (thumb) is unavailable, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

Impact Minshew is dealing with multiple fractures and a sprained ligament in his right thumb, putting his availability in doubt coming out of the bye week. Luton has been a healthy scratch all seven games this season as the team's No. 3 quarterback after being selected during the sixth round of the 2020 draft, but he could pass backup Mike Glennon on the depth chart if Minshew is sidelined.
