PHILADELPHIA — The last few days have been a whirlwind for Gardner Minshew.
The Eagles backup quarterback was in Mississippi on Tuesday, delivering a speech during his former coach Mike Leach’s funeral service. In the moments he didn’t spend honoring the coach he credits for much of his success, he was preparing for the Dallas Cowboys.
He studied plays and talked to his coaches over the phone, going through the game plan on his own while the team worked.
