Everyone seems to be seeking to play quarterback roulette within the offseason, however take the Jaguars off that listing.
After reviews surfaced that the Steelers approached the Jaguars in an try to commerce for Trevor Lawrence, Jacksonville is telling all groups to go fish.
Pittsburgh went into final season with Justin Fields and Russell Wilson at quarterback, however neither are below contract for 2025.
A Jaguars supply instructed ESPN there was “no chance” that Lawrence could be moved and known as the concept of buying and selling the previous Clemson Heisman Trophy winner “ridiculous.”
Lawrence is an enormous fan-favorite in Jacksonville, together with his alma mater a brief hour-long flight away, and a commerce would seemingly upset an already pissed off fan base.
The Jaguars had a 9-8 file in each 2022 and 2023 earlier than falling right into a 4-13 abyss in 2024 below coach Doug Pederson, who was fired on the conclusion of the season.
Jacksonville then had an embarrassing coach hiring cycle, as seemingly no prime head teaching candidates wished to report back to normal supervisor Trent Baalke.
Liam Coen then had a weird back-and-forth, as he initially selected to return to the Buccaneers as their offensive coordinator however then signed with the Jaguars after they fired Baalke.
It’s unclear who the Steelers would have even known as in the event that they did wish to specific curiosity in buying and selling for the Jaguars’ quarterback, as Jacksonville nonetheless has no normal supervisor since firing Baalke.
The Jaguars are at present conducting a seek for their subsequent normal supervisor, with Giants assistant Brandon Brown among the many prime candidates having already interviewed for the job.
Lawrence is getting into the final 12 months of his rookie contract however signed a five-year, $275 million extension that begins in 2026.
