Jacksonville Jaguars coach Doug Marrone has a tentative plan for his quarterbacks during Thursday night's preseason game against Carolina but he won't be announcing a final decision until Wednesday night.
Marrone said Monday that he wants to see how Blake Bortles and Chad Henne look during Tuesday's practice and Wednesday's walk-through just in case he decides to change his mind.
Marrone opened up the competition after Bortles turned in another lackluster performance in last Thursday night's 12-8 loss to Tampa Bay. Bortles completed 8 of 13 passes for 65 yards but he twice missed receiver Allen Robinson on deep passes. He slightly overthrew Robinson down the sideline and another pass to a wide-open Robinson was badly underthrown. Bortles also badly threw behind Robinson on an in route. Henne completed 6 of 10 passes for 44 yards against the Bucs. His first throw was a strike to Keelan Cole in the end zone that Cole dropped. Robinson also dropped a touchdown pass later that possession.
