The Jaguars paid $130 million for QBs in two seasons and ended up with Nick Foles

The Jaguars and quarterbacks generally don’t go well together. A year after giving Blake Bortles a deal that was worth an average of $18 million per year, they signed Nick Foles to a deal that’s worth an average of $22 million per year.

While the idea of signing a former Super Bowl MVP sounds good on paper, the reality is that Nick Foles and Blake Bortles have pretty much been the same player over the last two seasons — outside of the NFC Championship game and Super Bowl 52.

Now that they have Foles on the team, they’ll need to cut Blake Bortles just a year after extending his contract. When they cut Bortles, they’ll get hit with a $16.5 million dead cap charge according to Spotrac.
