The conclusion of Week 13 in the 2023 NFL season turned sour for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Not only did they suffer a defeat against the Bengals, but they also lost Trevor Lawrence to an ankle injury. Now, their strategy for the upcoming game against the Browns has been revealed.

Trevor Lawrence’s 2023 season has been impressive. The young quarterback has shown significant improvement since his debut campaign, and the Jaguars are on track to potentially enter the playoffs for the second consecutive year.

Unfortunately, Lawrence’s season might take a drastic turn. The quarterback sustained a severe ankle injury during the game against the Bengals, potentially jeopardizing his participation in the remaining regular-season games.

Doug Pederson, the team’s head coach, mentioned that Trevor Lawrence’s availability for the upcoming matchup will be determined just before the game. While the quarterback is putting in considerable effort to return, the team is cautious about risking his health, especially with the playoffs looming.

Unfortunately, the Jaguars have not secured the division title yet. They currently hold a record of 8-4, with the Texans behind them at 7-5. For this reason, Jacksonville could be tempted to use Lawrence to bolster their chances of winning against Cleveland.
