Minijets traversing through the QGP formed in heavy-ion collisions deposit significant amount of energy in the bulk medium. They also create gradients in temperatures which alter the flow profile and enhance entropy production. We study the effects of minijets in a simultaneous hydro + jet framework and find that inclusion of minijets requires recalibration of transport properties extracted from the model-to-data comparisons.
