Trevor Lawrence Off The Mark As Jags Lose Big

Sunday, October 19, 1:46 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence had a long day when his team took on the Los Angeles Rams, completing just 23 of 48 passing attempts for 296 yards and one touchdown. He also ran twice for 18 yards. While Lawrence finished with more than 300 total yards, it was an ugly day for the Jags' offense in general and the quarterback specifically. Jacksonville was behind 21-0 at halftime and never really in the game. By the end of the day, Lawrence had been sacked seven times and missed on a few eyebrow-raising throws. The Jags will take a much-needed break next week before returning to the field in Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Vikings to Start J.J. McCarthy in Week 9 if Healthy

Friday, October 24, 12:44 AM

Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy (ankle) will return to the starting role in Week 9 if he's fully healthy, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. McCarthy has missed five consecutive games, leaving Carson Wentz as the team's starting quarterback. The veteran is now 2-3 while filling in for McCarthy, and the urgency to hand the reins back to the Michigan product could be growing after Wentz struggled in the Vikings' 37-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night. Rapoport cautions that while the starting job will belong to McCarthy, he's only going to play if he's fully healthy. The 22-year-old will now have 10 days to get healthy before a quarterback decision must be made in Week 9 against the Detroit Lions.
