The Jaguars QB battle has gone a little different than many expected this camp. The conventional thought was that Blaine Gabbert could be pushed by veteran Chad Henne for the starting role, and third-stringer Jordan Palmer would be an afterthought. After two preseason games, Gabbert stands alone at the top of the depth chart, while Palmer's strong play has put him in the conversation for the backup roll.
Despite Palmer leading two game-winning drives already this preseason, coach Mike Mularkey confirmed to the Florida Times-Union that Henne is still the team's No. 2 QB.
Palmer has completed 14 of 27 passes for 149 yards, one touchdown and no interecptions in the preseason. Henne hasn't been as impressive, completing 8 of 18 passes for just 64 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

He was brought in to challenge the starting role, and is about to fall to 3rd string. We wasted so much time on this scrub.
