What is Gardner Minshew's win-loss record as a starter? Eagles' backup QB takes center stage after Jalen Hurts injury

Gardner Minshew will be making his first start of the season for the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 16, replacing the injured Jalen Hurts. The quarterback will be hoping to maintain the Eagles' incredible win streak when they square off against divisional rivals the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

However, Minshew does not have a winning record as a starting quarterback. The 26-year-old has an 8-14 record as a starter. He has only started two games for the Eagles since joining the team in 2021 and has a 1-1 record with them.

He played for the Jacksonville Jaguars for two years before signing for the Eagles. During his time with the Jaguars, Minshew had a 7-13 record as a starter.

Ironically, his last start for the Eagles was back in January 2022, against the Cowboys. He threw for two touchdowns but was sacked four times as Dallas earned the win.

Philadelphia is currently on a five-game winning streak and has already qualified for the playoffs. Nick Sirianni's side has won 13 games and suffered just one defeat in the regular season so far. However, they could seal their divisional title with a win against the Cowboys this weekend.
