• On the 3rd and 10th, the ball needed to be moved and Minshew went 28 yards over Smith’s middle, but on the next play Minshew was sacked for the sixth of the afternoon, this time by Jordan. On 3rd and 17th, Minshew’s pass to Gedelt was nearly picked off by Paulson Adebo. On the fourth down, Jacques Driscoll got off to a false start.
