Jaguars' QB Trevor Lawrence Ruled Out Due to Injury

C.J. Beathard Steps Up as Replacement Amid Critical Playoff Race

Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars' quarterback, will miss the first game of his professional career due to a sprained throwing shoulder.
C.J. Beathard will replace Lawrence, making his first start in three years.
The Jaguars are currently tied atop the AFC South with the Texans and Colts, and could clinch the division title with a victory against the Panthers and losses by Houston and Indianapolis.
This is the fourth injury Lawrence has suffered this season, having previously dealt with a sprained ankle, a concussion, and a sprained knee.
Despite four consecutive losses, the Jaguars still have an 80.3% chance of making the playoffs and a 68.8% chance of winning the division.
