News

  • Hoping to rebound in 2020

    Foles has no intention of retiring and plans to "come out slinging" in 2020, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: The news is hardly surprising given the 30-year-old signed a four-year, $88 million deal in March, though he had considered retirement earlier in his career. Regardless, the veteran quarterback's first season as a Jaguar was one to forget, as he suffered a fractured left clavicle in the season opener and was benched after returning from the subsequent eight-game stint on injured reserve. Foles completed 77 of 117 passes for 736 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions in four games,…read more

  • Will be backup Week 13

    Foles will be the Jaguars' backup quarterback Sunday versus the Chargers, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Foles broke his left collarbone Week 1 and spent the next two months on injured reserve. Once he was healthy enough to play Week 11, he took over the offense from Gardner Minshew, but after back-to-back losses to the Texans and Colts, Foles was pulled at halftime this past Sunday against the Bucs after completing seven of 14 passes for 93 yards and an interception while losing two fumbles. The decision by coach Doug Marrone to return to the 2019 sixth-round pick may extend beyond Sunday,…read more

  • Pulled at halftime

    Foles was replaced by Gardner Minshew to start the second half of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Foles completed seven of 14 passes for 93 yards and an interception with two lost fumbles, leading to a 25-0 deficit after two quarters. The Jaguars have been pummeled in three games since the veteran quarterback returned Week 11, and Sunday's turnover-prone performance provided little reason to allow him to finish the contest. Minshew could take over the starting job with a quality second-half effort, but coach Doug Marrone will have a decision to make about his starting quarterback,…read more

  • Remains starting quarterback

    Coach Doug Marrone suggested after Sunday's 42-20 loss to the Titans that Foles will remain the Jaguars' starting quarterback, Gene Frenette of The Florida Times-Union reports. "We got to figure it out with the guys we have," Marrone said, when asked about a potential change under center. "You got to keep fighting. You got to keep trying."

    Analysis: In his first two games since returning from a fractured left clavicle, Foles has completed 68.4 percent of his pass attempts, but he's generally struggled to move the offense (6.0 YPA) while the Jaguars have lost both contests handily. Though the Jaguars now sit at 4-7 and received generally strong play from rookie Gardner Minshew earlier this season, Marrone apparently isn't ready to throw the towel in on Foles. The veteran signal caller will at least find himself in a favorable spot in Week…read more

  • No TDs in loss to Titans

    Foles completed 32 of 48 pass attempts for 272 yards and carried three times for 20 yards during Sunday's 42-20 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Foles completed a respectable 67 percent of his passes but averaged a poor 5.7 yards per attempt due to a lack of shots downfield. He failed to account for a touchdown for the first time in his last six outings as the team deferred to Leonard Fournette near the goal line on a couple of occasions. All in all, this wasn't the worst performance from Foles, but it did little do back up his 296-yard, two-touchdown effort from a week ago. He will face a much more favorable matchup next Sunday against…read more

  • Attempts 47 passes in return

    Foles completed 33 of 47 pass attempts for 296 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in the team's Week 11 matchup against the Colts.

    Analysis: Foles looked comfortable immediately in his first game action since Week 1, completing six of his first seven passes. That stretch was highlighted by a 34-yard touchdown toss to DJ Chark, and he added his second score -- a 20-yard pass -- with just under a minute remaining in the game. Though Foles was reliant more upon volume than efficiency, he completed five passes over 15 yards and showed few signs of rust. He'll look to overcome a tough matchup in Week 12 at the Titans.

  • Reinstated from IR

    The Jaguars officially reinstated Foles (collarbone) from injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: The transaction was merely a formality after coach Doug Marrone announced earlier in the day that Foles would take over as the Jaguars' starting quarterback coming out of the Week 10 bye. Now that he's back from IR, Foles can resume practicing with the team and prepare for the Nov. 17 start against the Colts in what will mark his first appearance since Week 1.

  • Named starting quarterback

    Foles (collarbone) will be activated from injured reserve after the Jaguars' Week 10 bye and resume duties as the team's starting quarterback Nov. 17 versus the Colts, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

    Analysis: Foles' status as the long-term starter came into question after he got hurt in Week 1, allowing rookie Gardner Minshew to step in and find some early success directing the offense. However, Minshew lost momentum in Sunday's turnover-filled loss to the Texans, prompting coach Doug Marrone to hand the starting job back over to Foles, who should be fully recovered from his collarbone injury after the bye.

  • Role to be decided during bye

    Coach Doug Marrone will decide during Jacksonville's Week 10 bye whether Foles (collarbone) or Gardner Minshew will serve as the starting quarterback, Grant Gordon of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: The 30-year-old is expected to return from injured reserve ahead of the Week 11 game against the Colts, but whether he works as the backup or the starter remains to be seen. Rookie sixth-round pick Minshew has performed quite well since Foles fractured his left clavicle Week 1, though he just delivered his worst performance of the season with four turnovers in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Texans. Still, the rookie's body of work for the season could be enough to justify keeping him as the starter…read more

  • Role uncertain if available Week 11

    Foles (collarbone) is expected to be reinstated from injured reserve ahead of the Jaguars' Week 11 game against the Texans, but Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports there's "no guarantee" the signal-caller gets the starting job back upon his return.

    Analysis: Since Foles fractured his left clavicle in the season opener, rookie Gardner Minshew has stepped in to lead the Jaguars to a 4-3 record as a starter while completing 61.9 percent of his throws for 7.6 yards per attempt and a 13:2 TD:INT ratio. If Minshew maintains a hot hand and leads the Jaguars to a win over Houston in London on Sunday, coach Doug Marrone may not be compelled to make a change at quarterback coming out of the Jaguars' bye week. Regardless of how Minshew performs in the outing,…read more

  • Returning to limited practice

    Foles (collarbone) will return to practice Wednesday on a limited basis, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This requires the Jaguars to designate the quarterback as one of their two players eligible to return from injured reserve. The team will then have 21 days to add Foles to the 53-man roster, with Week 11 against Indianapolis representing the first game in which he's eligible to play. Coming off back-to-back subpar performances, Gardner Minshew will make at least two more starts before the Jaguars go on bye in Week 10. The starting quarterback decision for Week 11 could depend on how Minshew…read more

  • On pace to practice

    Foles (collarbone) will direct the scout team, take part in 7-on-7 drills and otherwise work on the side this week, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: If Foles indeed returns to practice, the Jaguars will be ensuring that he's one of their two players designated to return from IR in 2019, starting his 21-day clock to be activated to the 53-man roster. Considering he was placed on injured reserve after breaking his left collarbone in the season opener, he isn't eligible to suit up until a Week 11 divisional matchup at Indianapolis on Nov. 17. In the meantime -- and perhaps beyond that point -- rookie Gardner Minshew will serve as the Jaguars'…read more

  • Likely to practice next week

    Coach Doug Marrone suggested Friday that he expects Foles (collarbone) will be ready to resume practicing next week. "Yeah, we think we'll be able to get him next Wednesday out at practice," Marrone said.

    Analysis: Foles has progressed well since fracturing his left collarbone in the season opener and requiring surgery, but because the Jaguars placed him on injured reserve, he won't be eligible to play until the team's Week 11 game against the Colts on Nov. 17. Assuming Foles avoids any setbacks upon practicing and eventually returns from IR, the Jaguars will face the tough decision of whether to turn the offense back over to the high-priced offseason pickup or to stick with rookie Gardner Minshew under…read more

  • Eyeing minimum-length IR stay

    Foles, who underwent surgery this week to address his broken left collarbone, is targeting a return from injured reserve ahead of the Jaguars' Week 11 game against the Colts, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: According to a source familiar with the situation, Foles suffered a clean break of his collarbone in the Week 1 loss to the Chiefs and needed to have a plate and screws inserted into his shoulder as part of the procedure to ensure his long-term health. Before he's even cleared for on-field activity, Foles will be subjected to multiple scans over the next two months, but the quarterback believes he'll be ready to play again when he's first eligible to return from injured reserve in eight weeks.…read more

  • Could be targeting Week 11 return

    Foles (collarbone/IR) is "loosely targeting" a return to action Week 11, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Per the report, the QB's recovery is estimated to run in the 10-12 week range, "depending how the bone heals." While Foles is out, Gardner Minshew will serve as the Jaguars' starting signal-caller, backed up by Josh Dobbs. As Foles progresses to the point that he could possibly be designated to return from IR, where Jacksonville sits in the standings and how well its offense is performing at that stage figures to influence how the team proceeds with him. He won't be rushed back, in any case,…read more

  • Placed on IR after surgery

    Foles (clavicle) will be placed on injured reserve after Monday's successful surgery, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Foles won't be eligible to practice for the next six weeks or play in games for the next eight weeks. The Jaguars hope to get him back during the second half of the season, but Foles did mention that Sunday's injury is worse than the broken collarbone that held him out for the final eight weeks of the 2014 campaign. The Jaguars sent a fifth-round pick to the Steelers on Monday in exchange for Joshua Dobbs, who will slot in as the backup quarterback behind rookie Gardner Minshew.

The quarterback already said his current injury is worse than the clavicle fracture he suffered in 2014, which caused him to miss the final two months of that campaign. The decision to place Foles on IR will make him ineligible for games for the next eight weeks, leaving rookie sixth-round pick Gardner Minshew as the starting quarterback for Jacksonville.

  • Surgery on tap

    After Sunday's 40-26 loss to the Chiefs, Foles said that he'll undergo surgery on his broken left clavicle Monday, Phillip Heilman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Foles added that this injury is worse than the one suffered in 2014, which wiped out the final two months of that campaign. With a lengthy recovery expected, he'll yield the starting job to rookie Gardner Minshew in the meantime. After Foles departed in the first quarter, Minshew played well, going 22-for-25 for 275 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.

    Foles suffered a broken left clavicle in Sunday's 40-26 loss to the Chiefs, Phillip Heilman of The Athletic reports.

  • Won't return due to shoulder injury

    Foles has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Chiefs due to a left shoulder injury, Phillip Heilman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Foles made an appearance this week on the injury report with an oblique issue but entered the weekend without a designation. He proceeded to toss a TD on the Jaguars' second possession of the game, but in the process he took a wicked hit from the Chiefs' pass rush. With X-rays on tap, the precise nature of his injury should be known in due time. Gardner Minshew will direct the Jags offense for the rest of Week 1.

    Foles' oblique issue won't keep him off the field Sunday against the Chiefs, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports. "We're not concerned about it," coach Doug Marrone noted Thursday of the QB's listed injury.

    Analysis: Marrone did acknowledge that Foles had been dealing with an oblique issue during "training," but the minor nature of the injury was underlined by the signal-caller being listed as a full participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

    Foles (oblique) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Phillip Heilman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Per Heilman, Foles is dealing with "abdominal oblique soreness."

    Analysis: The Jaguars didn't do much of anything during their first two drives before a big pass interference call helped set up a 10-yard touchdown on a rollout from Foles to Dede Westbrook to cap off the third try. Foles threw an ill-advised pick on a broken play on the following drive and his night was over.

    Foles may not play in Thursday's preseason game against the Eagles, with coach Doug Marrone saying he'll likely hold some starters out of the contest, Phillip Heilman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Foles may thus miss out on a chance to face his former teammates, but he'll at least get some work in the third week of the preseason when Marrone intends to play all his healthy starters. Other candidates for rest Thursday against the Eagles include Leonard Fournette and Dede Westbrook (groin).

  • Inking four-year deal with Jaguars

    Foles is signing a four-year, $88 million deal with the Jaguars, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Foles to the Jaguars connection has been rumored since early in the offseason, but now it appears a deal will be made official once the new league year begins. The money and duration of the contract suggests that the Jaguars view Foles as a long-term solution, which should end speculation of the team using an early draft pick on quarterback. Foles completed 72 percent of his passes with seven touchdowns and four interceptions over five games with the Eagles in 2018.

    Foles is expected to sign with Jacksonville when the new league year opens next week, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Among quarterback-needy teams, Jacksonville is one of the few that seems to prefer a veteran over a rookie. Denver is the other team that stands out, but Foles isn't a fit now that the Broncos have an agreement in place to acquire Joe Flacco. It's expected the Jaguars will release fellow quarterback Blake Bortles, despite owing him $6.5 million in guaranteed 2019 base salary even if he isn't on the roster.

    The Eagles won't use their franchise tag on Foles this offseason, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Philadelphia now has until March 5 to place the franchise tag on Foles -- which is expected to be about $25 million for quarterbacks in 2019 -- or he will hit free agency.

    The Eagles picked up Foles' $20 million mutual option for 2019 on Tuesday, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Foles now has five days to accept the option or decline and pay back $2 million from his 2018 bonus to become a free agent. Things get a bit messier should the veteran quarterback pick up his side of the option, as the Eagles' dire cap situation makes it difficult to carry such a high cap figure heading into the 2019 season, as they would attempt to work out a trade. Regardless, Foles will assuredly be sought after given his performance in Philadelphia the past two seasons.

  • Cools off after hot start

    Foles completed 18 of 30 passes for 201 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions during the Eagles' 20-14 divisional-round playoff loss to the Saints on Sunday. He also netted zero yards on two rushes but scored a one-yard touchdown.

    Analysis: Foles and the Eagles looked like they were getting ready to cook up another serving of postseason magic early on, as they took a surprising 14-0 first-quarter lead. He first found Jordan Matthews on a perfect 37-yard pass downfield to open the scoring, and Foles then added his own one-yard touchdown dive later in the period to cap off a 10-play, 75-yard march. However, that would be it in terms of any appreciable success for the veteran signal-caller and Philadelphia itself, as the Saints…read more

  • Retains starting role

    Coach Doug Pederson confirmed Monday that Foles would remain the Eagles' starting quarterback for the team's matchup with the Saints this weekend in the NFC divisional round, Zach Berman of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: The decision was an obvious one with Foles having guided the Eagles to four straight victories -- including a road upset of the Bears in the wild-card round Sunday -- while Carson Wentz has been recovering from a back fracture. Pederson noted that Wentz is "still getting healthy," but the 2016 first-round pick won't be available even in a backup capacity versus New Orleans, leaving Nate Sudfeld to work as Foles' understudy. It's generally expected that Wentz will remain sidelined for the…read more

  • Playoff heroics continue

    Foles completed 25 of 40 passes for 266 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 16-15 wild-card-round win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Foles bounced back beautifully after a pair of first-half interceptions. He put his team up 10-6 with a 10-yard touchdown pass to Dallas Goedert in the third quarter, capping a drive that benefited from a third-down personal foul on the defense and a 33-yard pass interference call. After the Bears retook the lead, Foles engineered yet another game-winning drive, finding Golden Tate for a two-yard touchdown on fourth down with 56 seconds left in the game. A missed field goal by Cody Parkey on…read more

  • Gearing up for wild-card game

    Foles (ribs) came out of Thursday's practice unscathed and should be good to go for Sunday's wild-card game at Chicago, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: Foles was able to return to full participation at practice Thursday as his bruised ribs apparently didn't cause much of an issue. The veteran quarterback will serve as Philadelphia's starter with Carson Wentz (back) likely sidelined for any potential playoff run. The 29-year-old will hope to recapture the same form that helped him lead the Eagles to a Super Bowl victory last season, but has a tall task against a Bears defense that hasn't allowed more than 17 points in the last four games.

  • Full participant Thursday

    Foles (ribs) participated fully in Thursday's practice session, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Analysis: Foles' full participation Thursday is certainly a good sign, as it presumably signifies he will be ready to roll for the team's wild-card game against the Bears on Sunday. For a second straight season, the Eagles are expected to rely on Foles for their playoff run following news that Carson Wentz (back) likely won't take the field. With a championship already under his belt, Foles should be well equipped for a second straight postseason run, but a tough challenge awaits against a Chicago…read more

  • Listed as limited

    Foles (ribs) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.

    Analysis: Foles has already been named as the starter for Sunday's playoff game in Chicago. His bruised ribs may still be a bit sore coming out of the Eagles' Week 17 win over the Redskins, but his availability for the wild-card round isn't in any question.

  • Named as starter for opening round

    Coach Doug Pederson said Foles (ribs/chest) will start Sunday's playoff game in Chicago, Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com reports.

    Analysis: With multiple reports suggesting Carson Wentz (back) won't be available during the playoffs, the only remaining question was whether Foles suffered a significant injury during Sunday's 24-0 win over Washington. Diagnosed with bruised ribs Monday morning, the 29-year-old quarterback is expected to be fine by Sunday, though it won't come as any surprise if he shows up on the injury report this week. Foles will face a defense that led the league in interceptions (27), yards allowed per pass…read more

  • Avoids serious rib injury

    Foles was diagnosed with bruised ribs after undergoing additional testing Monday and is expected to be ready to play in the Eagles' matchup with the Bears in the NFC wild-card round this weekend, sources told Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

    Analysis: Just as the Eagles had hoped, Foles avoided a fracture to his rib cage after he was removed from the fourth quarter of Sunday's 24-0 win over the Redskins with the injury. Prior to departing, Foles had the Eagles well in control of the game, with the quarterback finishing the day with 28 completions on 33 attempts for 221 yards, two touchdowns and an interception before giving way to backup Nate Sudfeld. Foles' reps in practice could be restricted in the upcoming days as a means of managing the…read more

  • To be tested further Monday

    Foles is slated for additional tests Monday on the chest/rib injury he suffered during Sunday's 24-0 victory at Washington, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports.

    Analysis: Foles made an abbreviated exit early in the fourth quarter, and while he has yet to receive an official diagnosis, there's a belief that he suffered bruised ribs, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. X-rays and an MRI likely are on Foles' docket Monday, at which point the nature of the injury will become known. Despite the health concern, the Eagles think Foles will be fine for a visit to Chicago in the wild-card round next weekend.

  • Picks up presumed rib injury

    Foles is believed to have suffered bruised ribs during Sunday's 24-0 win at Washington, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: In back-to-back weeks, Foles took some tough hits in the second half, incurring injuries to his torso. The initial diagnosis appears to be to his ribs, but the Eagles' medical staff will hone in on the nature of the issue in the coming days. In his stead, Nate Sudfeld finished off the victory Sunday, but Foles will be under center in the wild-card round if the team reaches the postseason in the event of a Vikings loss to the Bears.

  • Battling chest issue

    Foles exited Sunday's game against the Redskins with a chest injury.

    Analysis: Foles walked to the locker room early in the fourth quarter, but it remains unclear when exactly he sustained the injury. Nate Sudfeld has taken over at quarterback as the Eagles lead 24-0 midway through the fourth quarter, so the team is unlikely to bring Foles back if there is even slight concern for his injury.

  • Confirmed as Week 17 starter

    Coach Doug Pederson confirmed Monday that Foles' ribs are fine and that the QB will start this coming Sunday's game against Washington, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: Per ESPN's Tim McManus, Foles -- who took a hit to his midsection late in Sunday's win over the Texans -- underwent X-rays afterward, but the signal-caller is evidently fine. It remains to be seen who might start for the Eagles if the team makes the playoffs, but with Carson Wentz still nursing a back injury, Foles -- who completed 35 of 49 passes for 471 yards, with four TDs and a pick Week 16 -- will continue to start for 8-7 Philadelphia.

  • Sets franchise mark in win

    Foles completed 35 of 49 passing attempts for 471 yards, four touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 32-30 win over the Texans. He also rushed once for one yard.

    Analysis: Foles came up clutch once again, leading the Eagles down the field for a game-winning field goal despite briefly leaving after a vicious hit by Jadeveon Clowney on the game's final drive. His 471 passing yards set the Eagles' mark for most in a single game. With the 29-year-old playing so well once again, it's tough to believe he won't get another start in a very winnable Week 17 matchup at Washington while Carson Wentz continues to recover from a back injury.

  • Getting another start

    Coach Doug Pederson named Foles as his starter for Week 16 against the Texans, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.

    Analysis: Pederson didn't seem sure about the situation earlier Monday morning, but he's apparently settled on a decision just a few hours later. Foles completed 24 of 31 passes for 270 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Rams, keeping Philadelphia alive in the playoff hunt. Carson Wentz (back) won't be brought back this week, but Pederson did say his franchise quarterback will remain on the 53-man roster, rather than being placed on injured reserve.

  • Plays role of backup hero again

    Foles competed 24 of 31 pass attempts for 270 yards, no touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Foles filled in for injured starter Carson Wentz (back), and the Super Bowl LII MVP delivered in a must-win game. The lack of touchdowns was the biggest negative on the veteran's day from a fantasy perspective, but 270 yards on a 77.4 completion percentage is about as good of a performance as you could ask for in the face of a ferocious defensive line. The Eagles probably were considering shutting Wentz down if the Eagles lost, so winning the game actually clouds Foles' chances of starting…read more

  • Locked in as Week 15 starter

    Foles will start Sunday against the Rams with Carson Wentz (back) ruled out for the contest, Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com reports.

    Analysis: It's a development that has been in the cards for a few days after it was reported that Wentz was dealing with a fractured back, which ultimately prevented him from practicing this week before he was listed as doubtful on the Eagles' final injury report. After evaluating Wentz again Saturday, the Eagles unsurprisingly decided that the franchise signal-caller wouldn't be ready to go, so Foles will earn his first start since Week 3 as Philadelphia looks to keep its fading playoff hopes alive.

  • Eyeing starting assignment Sunday

    Foles is in line to start Sunday's contest versus the Rams with Carson Wentz (back) doubtful to play, Dave Spadaro of the Eagles' official site reports.

    Analysis: Foles' elevation was set in motion by Tuesday's CT scan of Wentz, which revealed a stress fracture in his back. Reports have oscillated between Wentz not playing, potentially suiting up, and now doubtful to play this weekend. Beyond Sunday, it's anybody's guess as to if Wentz will be able to return, but Foles has taken every first-team rep in practice this week with an eye toward being under center. Including the Eagles' run to the Super Bowl and two games this season, Foles completed 64.7…read more

  • Could get Week 15 starting nod

    Foles could serve as the Eagles' starting quarterback Sunday against the Rams with Carson Wentz (back) uncertain to be available, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: When he met with the media Wednesday, coach Doug Pederson said Wentz would miss the Eagles' first practice of the week with back soreness/tightness and wouldn't commit to the franchise signal-caller being ready to go by the weekend. More doubt about Wentz's status emerged shortly after Pederson's comments to the press when Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that Wentz would likely sit out Sunday and could be shut down for the season. The Eagles have yet to respond to the report and may not…read more
