One more market-setting NFL contract was handed out on Monday, but it wasn’t to Trevor Lawrence. That wait continues.
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence during the team's NFL football practice, Tuesday, May 28, 2024, in Jacksonville, Fla. But unlike other contract situations in professional sports that have played out in the public eye, Lawrence’s status with the Jaguars hasn’t been one of them. An extension for Lawrence has been one of the biggest headlines in the offseason, especially for the Jaguars . The No.
Lawrence knows that his contract situation is big news, but he’s been more focused with what’s going on in the huddle. Jacksonville is in a pivotal season. The Jaguars have won nine games in back-to-back seasons, but they had far different feelings at the end of both. In 2022, Jacksonville finished the year on a tear and made the playoffs. Last season, the Jaguars were 8-3 at one point and imploded with losses in five of their final six games to miss the postseason.
“I think we’ve gotten a lot better. Just the way the tempo, the intensity that we’ve had in OTAs, it’s been definitely a step up of the past couple years. I know that was the point of emphasis for us is to really take advantage of this time that we get,” Lawrence said. “Look, it’s not about necessarily being all vocal. I played with one of the greatest in Brett and he wasn’t a vocal guy but he just led by example and spoke up when he had to,” Pederson. “Trevor is very similar that way. He speaks when he has to, but just things we’ve seen this offseason have been very positive that way, and we just got to continue to grow in that direction.”
