After Jacksonville signed its quarterback to a $275 million extension, it’s up to the Jaguars coach to prove he is the right person for the job or get out of the way.
After a 33-yard scramble by Trevor Lawrence to set the Jacksonville Jaguars up inside the 3-yard line for a first-and-goal situation in the second quarter Sunday, Doug Pederson took his second timeout.
Two trips to the red zone later , with a little less than nine minutes to play in the fourth quarter, the team had a touchdown nullified via illegal shift. A pass on second down to Etienne gained no yardage and, on third down, Lawrence appeared to pass up an open wide receiver at the pylon to sky the ball out of the back of the end zone.
