Jaguars HC Liam Coen Provides Update on Trevor Lawrence's Status vs Panthers

Jaguars HC Liam Coen gave an update on Trevor Lawrence's status for Friday's preseason matchup against the Panthers.

The Jacksonville Jaguars experienced a successful preseason opener against the New Orleans Saints, securing a 24-20 victory at Caesars Superdome. With just two preseason games remaining and the regular season just over a month away, the focus has shifted to when franchise quarterback Trevor Lawrence will play alongside his teammates.

On Monday, head coach Liam Coen revealed that Lawrence and the rest of the starters are trending towards playing in the Jaguars' next preseason matchup, a Friday night game against the Carolina Panthers in Jacksonville. Coen expressed the team's desire to provide Lawrence with "a little bit more work" against opponents, emphasizing the need for "padded work against each other" before the regular season begins.
