Trevor Lawrence, NFL and Jaguars

Chiefs HC Andy Reid sent a clear message to Chris Jones after the star lineman's poor effort against the Jaguars in Week 5.
Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks (3-2), however, are coming off the opposite result following a 38-35 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a game-winning field goal at the end of regulation. Darnold was almost perfect, playing one of the best games of his career, until a late ricochet-induced interception ended the Seahawks' hopes.
Marissa Lawrence, the wife of Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence, turned plenty of heads on "Monday Night Football." The Jaguars improved to 4-1 on the season with an epic win over the Kansas City Chiefs.
One of the worst things that can be said about a professional football player is that he was loafing on the field.
A "goofy" finish to Monday night's game saw Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence stumble after taking a snap from the 1-yard line, get up, stumble again, then break a tackle before diving into the end zone for the winning touchdown against the Chiefs.
Lawrence responded by noting that his first instinct upon falling to the ground was to throw the ball away. His understanding was that Chiefs defenders would be bearing down on him, and his well-trained Quarterback Brain wouldn't want him to take a brutal accidental loss of yards in that goal-to-go situation.
"I was just gonna throw it out of bounds to stop the clock, but there was really no one around me so I made a play," Lawrence said.
