Trevor Lawrence Will Play Thursday Night
2 years agoJacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (toe), who is listed as questionable for the Thursday night game against the New York Jets, will play, according to a source. Lawrence has been dealing with a nagging toe injury since Week 13 but has battled through it and is playing the best football of his career, so his status for Week 16 wasn't really in question despite the questionable tag on the final injury report. The 23-year-old had 318 passing yards and four touchdowns against a strong Dallas Cowboys defense in an overtime win in Week 15 and enters the week as the overall QB7 in fantasy points on the season. The second-year signal-caller will be facing one of the best defenses in the league on Thursday night in the Jets, but his recent performances have put him on the QB1 map.
