It appears that the Jacksonville Jaguars will be without star quarterback Trevor Lawrence for the rest of the 2024 season.
Three days after he suffered a concussion on a dirty hit from Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al Shaair, the Jaguars announced that Trevor Lawrence has been placed on the injured reserve.
This means that Lawrence will miss a minimum of four games, so he wouldn’t be eligible to return until Week 18 against the Indianapolis Colts. But with the Jags (2-10) out of the playoff race, and with Lawrence also nursing a shoulder injury, it’s unlikely that he’ll return to the field for the season finale.
With Trevor Lawrence likely done for the season, backup Mac Jones takes over as the starting quarterback in Duval County. With Jones in a contract year, the 2021 first-round pick has the chance to increase his free agent stock.

Azeez Al-Shaair was ejected for the unnecessary head shot on Lawrence in the second quarter of Sunday’s game, and the league subsequently handed down a three-game suspension to him.
Assuming he’s done for 2024, Lawrence’s season ends with a 60.6 completion percentage for 2,045 yards, 11 touchdowns and seven interceptions. After recording back-to-back winning seasons, the Jags will merely try to avoid finishing with football’s worst record for the third time in five years.
Jacksonville will try to pick up its third win when they visit the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
Jaguars Need To Get Trevor Lawrence More Help In 2024
Lawrence needs a better offensive line and a defense that can actually make pivotal stops. And seeing how many offensive players disappointed, the front office shouldn’t be shy to shake up the skill positions around T-Law.
Kansas City Chiefs President Forced To Address Rumors That Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Relationship Is Just A “Marketing Strategy” For The Team

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.
Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.
Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:
“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.
I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
