Trevor Lawrence is coming alive. The Jaguars’ second-year quarterback was 30-of-42 for 368 yards, three touchdowns and a 121.9 rating in Sunday’s breezy 36–22 win over the Titans—but it was more than just the numbers that jumped out in this one.
To me, Lawrence is starting to look as comfortable, and deadly a passer, and dangerous a runner, as he did at Clemson. And that means it sure looks like he’s put a rookie year in which all hell was breaking loose around him in the rear-view mirror, thanks in large part to coach Doug Pederson and his staff stabilizing the environment around him.
“Especially as a rookie, certain situations, there’s only so much you can control,” Lawrence told me postgame. “There were definitely some challenges that we faced here, and I learned a lot. I wouldn’t change it. I really learned a lot about myself, just kinda having to battle through a little adversity. Wouldn’t take it back, but I think just the way the staff’s come in and really started from the ground up, with myself, definitely, but everyone has been great.
