Doug Pederson on Trevor Lawrence's knee injury - no hints shared.
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is day to day with a knee injury, but coach Doug Pederson is not providing any details.
The Jacksonville Jaguars are facing uncertainty at the quarterback position as Trevor Lawrence is dealing with a knee injury. Head coach Doug Pederson provided limited information about the injury, stating that Lawrence is feeling better but is still sore. Pederson did not disclose any specifics about the nature of the injury.
When asked if Lawrence would be ready to play against the New Orleans Saints on Thursday, Pederson gave a cryptic response, saying, "7:20, kickoff, Thursday night." This suggests that the team may not have a clear answer until closer to game time.
Lawrence himself expressed optimism about his condition, stating that his knee was feeling "pretty good" after the game on Sunday. However, he was seen leaving the stadium with a wrap around his injured left leg. The team reportedly conducted an MRI, but according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, they believe there is no major injury.
Despite the positive news, any knee injury can present challenges, especially with the Jaguars playing on a short week. If Lawrence is unable to play, the team will turn to C.J. Beathard, who previously started for the San Francisco 49ers. Beathard has limited experience with the Jaguars, having thrown only 15 passes with the team.
In addition to the quarterback situation, the Jaguars are also dealing with other injury concerns. Cornerback Tyson Campbell is expected to miss the game against the Saints, while the team has signed cornerback Amani Oruwariye to the practice squad and cut fullback Derek Parish.
Overall, the Jaguars are facing uncertainty and challenges as they prepare to take on the Saints. The status of Trevor Lawrence's knee injury remains unclear, and the team will need to make adjustments if he is unable to play.
