Trevor Lawrence Expected To Play On Sunday

11 months ago

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (head) is expected to play on Sunday versus Tampa Bay. The 24-year-old has gotten banged up in the last month, suffering an ankle injury in the Monday night overtime loss to the Bengals in Week 13. He continues to deal with the ankle issue. However, Lawrence was placed in concussion protocol after the Week 15 loss to Baltimore. But after it appeared Lawrence was a lock to sit in Week 16, he cleared concussion protocol on Friday and traveled with the team. Nevertheless, the Bucs defense has struggled against opposing quarterbacks this season, meaning Lawrence's outlook is promising. But he likely won't be 100% if he suits up, which isn't an ideal scenario. At the same time, Zay Jones (knee, hamstring) may also get ruled out, lessening Lawrence's fantasy potential. That said, a case can be made for the signal-caller to have a place in all fantasy lineups, although he remains a risky option.
