Gardner Minshew's Jacked Dad Looks Like an Absolute Boss on Thursday Night Football Broadcast
By Scott Rogust
In just two weeks, Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew II has become a cult icon in the NFL. From his half-naked stretching routines in the locker room to his famous mustache, his legend continues to grow.
On Thursday night, Minshew's popularity grew after throwing a first quarter touchdown pass to tight end James O'Shaughnessy to put the Jaguars up 7-0 against the Tennessee Titans. The NFL Network camera then cut to Minshew's father, Flint, who looks absolutely jacked.

At first glance, the senior Minshew looks like Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden if he started taking mass gainer. Seriously though, Mr. Minshew is absolutely jacked, and will no doubt be approached by individuals seeking out a new workout regimen.

Minshew, a sixth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, was called upon earlier than anyone expected due to starter Nick Foles suffering a broken clavicle in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The man almost named Beowulf has stepped up and performed admirably ever since.
The impressive showing continued on Thursday night, as Minshew carved up the Titans defense in the first quarter. And father Flint was pumped up, both figuratively and literally.
