However, Jacksonville went on to lose against Kansas City in a divisional-round matchup.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, in 16 games (all starts) in the 2023 season, he recorded 21 touchdowns, 14 interceptions, 4,016 passing yards, and an 88.5 passer rating.<\/p>\n<p>Last season, Lawrence also led the Jaguars to an 8-3 start. Overall, it was not a bad season statistically.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, he suffered a concussion among ankle and shoulder injuries over the final six weeks of the season. Jacksonville finished 1-5 in its last six games and missed the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>Lawrence is currently fourth all time in Jaguars history in passing yards (11,770) and passing touchdowns (58). The 6-foot-6, 220-pound quarterback is 21-31 as a starter (including playoffs).<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Lawrence improved under head coach Doug Pederson, throwing for 4,113 yards and 25 touchdowns with only eight interceptions in 2022.
