Trevor Lawrence looking to end winless career streak against Bengals
Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has never beaten the Bengals in three career meetings, a streak he will try to end Sunday in Cincinnati.
Trevor Lawrence, the Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback, has been striving to end his career-long winless streak against the Cincinnati Bengals. Lawrence's record against the Bengals stands at 0-3, with each loss coming by a narrow margin. His first encounter with the Bengals came during his rookie season in 2021, where Jacksonville lost 24-21.
Two years later, the Bengals prevailed in overtime with a 34-31 score after Lawrence threw for 271 yards and three touchdowns. The most recent loss occurred last season, with Cincinnati defeating Jacksonville 31-27, despite Lawrence's impressive performance with 271 yards and three touchdowns.
On Wednesday, Lawrence acknowledged the significance of the match, stating, "We have to make it turn; we have to go win it," according to Jaguars.com. Coming into the latest meeting, Lawrence is playing at his best. He has completed 66.7% of his passes, throwing for a total of 616 yards, including seven touchdowns and two interceptions in three games, resulting in a passer rating of 107.8.
Jacksonville secured a 2-1 record after a convincing 35-6 win over New England. Meanwhile, Cincinnati is also at 2-1 after suffering a narrow 30-27 loss to Pittsburgh. Sunday's game presents Lawrence with another opportunity to break the Bengals' winless streak and put an end to one of the many opponent-specific challenges he has faced throughout his NFL career.
