Trevor Lawrence wants to get Jaguars wide receiver involved more

Trevor Lawrence is focused on increasing Jakobi Meyers' target count for the Jacksonville Jaguars during their upcoming Week 3 game against the New England Patriots. As of now, Meyers has only been handed the ball three times in two games, while Parker Washington leads the team with 18 targets. Despite the limited opportunities, Meyers has made the most of them, amassing 68 yards with a touchdown on three receptions.

Lawrence expressed his belief in Meyers' abilities, stating, "Definitely gotta give him more opportunities. He can do a lot, he’s a really great route runner, gets open, understands things, he knows what we’re doing schematically, I trust him… I think that is definitely something that’s important for us as an offense."

Expanding Meyers' role goes beyond just adding to his stats. His ability to effectively attack the middle and intermediate parts of the field is crucial for the Liam Coen offense. When Meyers makes plays in these areas, it not only contributes to his own production but also creates opportunities for other members of the Jaguars' passing game.

Additionally, Meyers' reliability in the passing game could help extend drives, especially in crucial down-and-distance situations. With a formidable New England defense to face, it remains to be seen if the Jaguars will prioritize getting Meyers more involved in this week's matchup.
