Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blaine Gabbert says that he is happy to get another chance to win the starting role with the team.

Blaine Gabbert has said that he will be looking to prove that he is the "right guy" to be the starting quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars this weekend.

The 23-year-old has been named as the starter for the Jaguars' pre-season game against the New York Jets on Saturday.

Gabbert told the team's website: "The competition isn't over. We're still going to go out there and compete every day, and that's how it's going to be throughout the entire season.

"I'm just looking at it as another opportunity to go out there and prove to the coaches, and prove to the guys on our team that I'm the right guy for the position.

"It's also another opportunity to learn our offense, another chance to work against a different defense, and to perfect some things we've been working on all week."

Gabbert has been competing with Chad Henne for the role.
