- NFL. Trevor Lawrence's bulks up and refines skills to fuel Jaguars' anticipation for season
The Jacksonville Jaguars are confident that quarterback Trevor Lawrence is prepared to elevate his performance to an elite level.
They hold the belief that following their surprising victory over the Los Angeles Chargers last year, they have a shot at making a comeback to the playoffs.
Under the guidance of head coach Doug Pederson, Lawrence has demonstrated substantial development. Pederson has noted that the young quarterback possesses qualities akin to the finest ers he has collaborated with throughout his career.
Lawrence impresses Pederson
"The biggest thing that I've seen with Trevor, now going on two years, from where we had him a year ago in the offseason to today, just his confidence is incredible. It's off the charts," Pederson said.
"He's put the past behind him, he's focused on the future, and really embraced this opportunity with this football team. The confidence level with him is extremely high, as it should be.
"Great quarterbacks that I've either played with or we've watched in the NFL have all had that ability to make others better and really rise and bring the talent around him up.
"He's one of those guys. He's not demanding or pounding his fists on the table, nothing like that. Just conversations you see with guys and how he's willing to learn, he doesn't have all the answers, but at the same time, they're working through things.
"That's the leadership part that I'm encouraged with and the dialogue that he has. It just keeps getting stronger each week."
In the previous season, Lawrence led the Jaguars to a 9-8 record and achieved 25 touchdown es while only recording eight interceptions.
