Trevor Lawrence Faces Uncertainty with Jaguars’ Third Coaching Change in Five Years

The quarterback reflects on Doug Pederson's firing, his injury struggles, and the team's need for culture and consistency.

Trevor Lawrence expressed disappointment over the firing of head coach Doug Pederson, calling it a 'weird feeling' and emphasizing the need for stability within the Jacksonville Jaguars organization.
Lawrence is recovering from shoulder surgery and a concussion sustained in 2024, missing a total of seven games last season and raising concerns about his durability moving forward.
The Jaguars, holding the No. 5 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, are actively searching for a new head coach, with Lawrence voicing a preference for a young, offensive-minded leader to build long-term consistency.
Jacksonville's struggles under Pederson included a 5-18 record over their last 23 games, with Lawrence acknowledging his own role in the team's lack of success and calling for improved culture and toughness.
Despite a challenging 2024 season, Lawrence remains confident in the team's potential, citing young talent like rookie wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. and calling the upcoming offseason pivotal for the franchise.
