Trevor Lawrence Optimistic About Playing Thursday Despite Knee Injury

Trevor Lawrence injured his left knee during the Jaguars' previous game against the Colts.
Lawrence has been wearing a knee brace at practice this week and is optimistic about playing on Thursday.
The Jaguars are on a three-game winning streak and currently first in the AFC South.
If Lawrence can't play, backup C.J. Beathard is expected to start at quarterback against the Saints.
A final decision on Lawrence's status will likely be made close to game time on Thursday night.
