Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence: Plays well despite injury
Lawrence (knee) completed 20 of 29 passes for 204 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions and rushed eight times for 59 yards in the Jaguars' 31-24 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Lawrence's status was in question right up until pregame warmups, but the third-year signal-caller was able to not only suit up, but also compile a season-high rushing yardage figure. Lawrence hit Christian Kirk with a go-ahead 44-yard touchdown pass with just over three minutes remaining on a slant pattern that saw the receiver curl upfield after the catch and outrun multiple defenders to the end zone. Lawrence also remained interception-free for the third time in four games, and he'll now have a few extra days to strengthen his knee before a Week 8 road matchup against an aggressive Steelers defense Sunday, Oct. 29.
