Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence tweaked his knee in Sunday's win over the Indianapolis Colts, but the hope is he's ready to go for Thursday night's showdown with the New Orleans Saints.
Lawrence is believed to have avoided a major injury, but will undergo an MRI and is considered day to day, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Monday.
Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson underscored Lawrence's day-to-day status when speaking to reporters Monday, saying Lawrence was feeling better, but still sore. When pressed as to whether Lawrence could potentially miss Week 7, Pederson said once again, "Day to day."
The Jaguars listed Lawrence as a DNP in Monday's estimated practice.
Lawrence played all but three snaps Sunday -- with C.J. Beathard kneeling out the blowout win -- completing 20 of 30 attempts for 181 yards with two touchdowns tosses and an interception. Beathard could split practice reps this week with Lawrence pending on how the latter feels, but that wouldn't necessarily impact Lawrence's status, Pederson said.
The biggest issue for the Jags could be the quick turnaround before traveling to New Orleans for Thursday night's tussle, but it sounds like Lawrence should be fine for the AFC South leaders.
