The Jacksonville Jaguars were supposed to be one of the best teams in the NFL last season. They had a somewhat easy schedule, and most of the teams in their division looked like they were far from contenders. The Houston Texans took the league by storm and the Indianapolis Colts were also surprisingly competitive, but still, the Jaguars had plenty of issues. They were incredibly disappointing, considering they were the reigning divisional champions and were fresh off a playoff win. Notably, plenty of that had to do with Trevor Lawrence. With that in mind, NFL analyst Greg Cosell decided to take an in-depth look at his tape during the summer, and he’s quite worried about what he saw. Talking on the Ross Tucker podcast, Cosell claimed that Lawrence has regressed.

He doesn’t know why, but he believes he’s very uncomfortable on the field right now, and he’s trending down instead of up. Lawrence was labeled as a generational talent at the quarterback position, and there was nothing not to like about his game in college. He’s still young, but given how he’s played in all but his second year in the league, that generational prospect is nowhere to be found. Whether it’s Doug Pederson’s coaching or anything else, the Jaguars must figure out what’s going on with their franchise player, especially after making him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league just in the offseason.
