Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence’s status for an important Week 16 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers has been up in the air, with the Clemson product working his way through the concussion protocol this week after sustaining a head injury late in Sunday’s Week 15 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
On Saturday, Lawrence took an important step toward playing against the Buccaneers, as he cleared the concussion protocol and will travel with the Jaguars to Tampa, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The team confirmed the report later on Saturday.
Rapoport stopped short of saying that Lawrence will start under center for the Jaguars on Sunday, although that is the likeliest scenario.
