Fox Sports 1 analyst and Hall of Fame wide receiver Cris Carter has a simple solution for the sputtering Jacksonville Jaguars: Sign free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick.

In a discussion on FS1's "First Things First" on Monday morning, Carter said the Jaguars made a mistake by not previously signing Kaepernick and instead sticking with Blake Bortles, whom coach Doug Marrone benched Sunday.

Now, Carter said, the only solution to the team's inefficiency at the position is to reverse course.

"It's not a public service announcement. This is just free advice: Swallow your pride, pick up the phone and call Kap," Carter said on the show. "Now you want to galvanize your locker room? You're having a problem with that defense? Call Kap. Bring Kap to the locker room. Let's see if Kap can change it. Because he's better than the quarterback you have, and I just believe right now, in the season, I believe he can make a difference on that football team."
