This situation is a lot like when Blake Simms/ Jake Coker battled for the starting job.
Blake was ahead of Jake and won the job but Jake had the most upside. That was seen at the end of 2015 when Jake was reading defenses and playing at a high level. In 2014 Blake had achieved his ceiling by the end of the year as a QB and it showed in the playoffs.
Jalen is a great QB but I think he may have achieved his potential. Tua is already ahead of Jalen in raw talent and his upside is so much more, he just needs experience. I hope we have an open competition in the spring/ fall for the spot and let the best man win.
