At the 2024 NFL Annual Meeting, Jacksonville head coach Doug Pederson emphasized the importance of quarterback Trevor Lawrence’s health. During the AFC Coaches Breakfast, he spoke about Lawrence and his struggles with injuries towards the end of last season. Pederson stressed that Lawrence’s availability on the field was crucial for the team’s success, especially considering how his injuries affected their performance late in the season.
Despite facing multiple injuries, including a concussion, a shoulder injury, and a high-ankle sprain, Lawrence only missed one game last season. However, his practice and game time were limited due to these injuries, which impacted his performance on the field.
Pederson emphasized that Lawrence should prioritize taking every snap in practice to ensure his readiness for game days. The head coach pointed out that missing practice time can have a significant impact on a player’s performance, especially at the quarterback position. Lawrence’s focus moving forward is to improve his play and lead the team to success despite facing challenges in late 2023.
Lawrence has shown great potential as a quarterback since joining Jacksonville in 2021. Pederson expressed confidence in his development and approach but highlighted that it was essential for him to stay healthy to avoid missing significant stretches of games.
The Jaguars had started strong at 8-3 before experiencing a late-season slide due to Lawrence’s injuries. They went 1-5 in their final month and a half of the season after this setback.
In conclusion, Doug Pederson emphasized Trevor Lawrence’s health as critical for Jacksonville’s success as they look forward to their next season. With newfound determination and focus on improving his play, Lawrence is ready to take on any challenge that comes his way.
