On a recent appearance on the Up & Adams Show with Kay Adams, Jacksonville Jaguars’ quarterback Trevor Lawrence provided an update on his shoulder injury, Paul Bretl of Jaguars Wire reports.
“It’s going well,” said Lawrence. “I was six weeks in the sling, been out for three weeks, so I’m going on Week 10 and it’s feeling a lot better.
“It’ll be a little bit more work to do, build some strength, get some range of motion, but I’m on my way. It’s feeling a lot better than it was in that sling.”
After being placed on injured reserve after a concussion that he suffered in Week 13 on an illegal hit, Lawrence and the Jaguars decided that he would undergo surgery to repair an AC joint in his non-throwing shoulder.
Lawrence suffered the injury in Week 9 and missed Weeks 10-11 in an attempt to let it heal.
During his season-ending press conference back in mid-January, Lawrence said one of the main things for him in 2025 will be staying healthy.
While he did play in 16 of the 17 games in 2023, Lawrence noted that he dealt with injuries for much of the year. This past season, Lawrence played in 10 games.
“In really the last two seasons, that’s been a struggle for me,” said Lawrence about staying healthy. “Last year I only missed one game because of it, but still, I was dealing with a lot of injuries and that’s something in my career, until last year, I didn’t deal with really much. This year was tough, missing basically half the season because of injuries and having to watch.
“Definitely get a different perspective of everything when you’re not in the middle of it every day. So I think I’ve learned a lot. The main thing is I’ve just gotta be healthy, whether that’s getting stronger this offseason or limiting some of the hits when I’m out there.”
