Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence avoided a major injury to his knee in Sunday’s win over the Colts and remains day to day, coach Doug Pederson said Monday.
Jacksonville romped to a 37-20 win over Indianapolis, but the win was tempered with a handful of injuries, the biggest coming to Lawrence. Pederson said that right guard Brandon Scherff and Lawrence were “both are feeling better to today ... they’re sore.”
Lawrence was injured in the game’s final minutes when he rolled to his left and was dragged down by Indianapolis defensive end Samson Ebukam for a 17-yard loss. Lawrence grabbed his left knee and stayed down on the field before being tended to and walking off under his own power. He was checked out on the sideline by the team’s medical staff and was designated questionable to return. Up 34-20 at the time of injury, there was no need for Lawrence to go back out. Jacksonville kicked a field goal after that for the final margin, and C.J. Beathard took the final knees on the final three snaps to end the game.Justin Barney joined News4Jax in February 2019, but he’s been covering sports on the First Coast for more than 20 years.
