Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence, nursing sore knee, aims to play against New Orleans Saints
The Jacksonville Jaguars and their hobbled quarterback take a three-game winning streak to New Orleans to face Derek Carr and the Saints on Thursday night.
Lawrence, who is wearing a brace after spraining his knee late last week, aims to play. How effective he’ll be is the big question. If needed, the Jaguars will turn to veteran C.J. Beathard. The Jaguars shouldn’t need too much offence thanks to an improved defence that leads the NFL in takeaways and has allowed 15.7 points per game the past three weeks.
Also, Carr hasn’t given the Saints a big boost on offence just yet. They’re 24th in scoring and 20th in total yards. Lawrence’s iffy status makes the Saints 1½-point favourites, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
