Trevor Lawrence and Evan Engram Undergo Surgeries

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence underwent successful surgery on his left shoulder to repair an AC joint sprain after being placed on injured reserve due to multiple injuries this season. Lawrence initially suffered a shoulder injury in Week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles and sustained a concussion in Week 13 following a hit from Houston Texans' Azeez Al-Shaair, who was suspended for the hit. Despite a challenging season for the Jaguars, plagued by injuries and a disappointing record, head coach Doug Pederson is optimistic about Lawrence's recovery and expects him to be ready for the offseason program. Lawrence completed 2,045 yards with 11 touchdowns this season, and his recovery will be crucial for the Jaguars' prospects next year. Pederson also confirmed that tight end Evan Engram had surgery, and both players are on the road to recovery. The Jaguars are focusing on the next steps for the team, considering draft picks to address weaknesses and aiming for a bounce-back season.
