Avast ye, me hearties! The fearsome captain o' the Jacksonville Jaguars, Doug Pederson, be spillin' the beans this fine Tuesday! That scallywag quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, be sufferin' from a nasty high ankle sprain after the plunderin' they received from the Bengals on Monday night!
The Jacksonville Jaguars suffered a blow on Monday night when their quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, sustained a serious ankle injury. Head coach Doug Pederson confirmed on Tuesday that Lawrence had suffered a high ankle sprain to his right leg, but reassured that the injury may not be as bad as it initially seemed. Pederson stated that everything appeared stable and looked promising, although he did not provide a specific timeline for Lawrence's return or rule out the possibility of surgery. Dr. Bonnie Chien, an orthopedic surgeon, explained that a high ankle sprain involves the ligaments connecting the tibia and fibula in the ankle and typically requires a longer recovery period than a low ankle sprain. The injury occurred during a game when Lawrence's ankle was stepped on by a teammate, causing him to twist it as he was sacked. Lawrence left the stadium in a walking boot and on crutches. It remains uncertain if he will be ready to play in the next game against the Cleveland Browns, as high ankle sprains often take longer to heal. Despite experiencing minor injuries in the past, Lawrence has never missed an NFL game in his three seasons. The Jaguars currently lead the AFC South division.
