The Jaguars waived on Saturday. The decision to waive Rourke came a day before starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence suffered a head injury. The Jaguars don’t have a quarterback on their practice squad and probably would have retained Rourke.
The Jaguars will now have to search for an emergency quarterback this week. But as we’ve seen Monday, the quarterback positions’ reserves are quickly being taken by needy teams.
