Doug Pederson Discusses Jaguars' Season Outlook

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson expressed optimism as he prepares to lead the team through the final six games of a challenging season, currently marked by a 2-9 record. Despite the surrounding negativity, Pederson emphasized his commitment to maintaining a positive environment for his players. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence is expected to return to practice following a bye week after missing the last two games due to a shoulder injury, although his status for the upcoming game against the Houston Texans remains uncertain. Pederson noted that the team used the bye week to evaluate their schemes and make adjustments, particularly in the run game. He acknowledged the fatigue the team faces but believes they can still make a difference in the remaining games. With Lawrence's potential return, the Jaguars look to turn their season around amidst a tough schedule ahead.
