Trevor Lawrence’s Knee Injury

The news came with “Jaguars’ QB Trevor Lawrence is still uncertain whether he can play in this week’s Jacksonville Jaguars-New Orleans Saints game matchup due to his knee injury. Trevor Lawrence suffered a knee sprain and Jaguars will determine as the week progresses,” Adam Schefter said.

The Jaguars’ backup is C.J. Beathard who has 12 career starts. In addition, the San Francisco 49ers also went 2-10 in those starts, and he hasn’t made a start since 2020.

Trevor Lawrence Never Skipped A Game Before

Lawrence has never missed a game in three NFL seasons. Lawrence left Sunday with the Jaguars holding a 37-20 win over the Indianapolis Colts with a knee injury after rolling out and taking a sack with just over 3:00 left in the game, but the third-year signal-caller said after the game that he was “feeling OK.”

The Jaguars have won three in a row to take first place in the AFC South at 4-2. It will be hard for the Jaguars to risk the long-term health of their franchise quarterback, so it will be a delicate decision on whether to start him against a good Saints defense.

If Jaguars-Saints was Sunday, it would give Trevor Lawrence a few extra days to recover from his injury. Instead, it might be a bummer for Jaguars-Saints on Thursday night to be missing one of that game’s biggest young stars.
