Jaguars' Lawrence to play Sunday vs. Titans

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is active for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans.

Lawrence returned to practice Friday as a limited participant after missing the first two sessions of the week due to a toe injury.

The 2021 first overall pick went down awkwardly after being sacked late in the first half of last week's loss to the Detroit Lions. Despite missing some plays, Lawrence was able to return to the contest. He recorded 179 passing yards and one touchdown, adding 32 rushing yards.

Earlier in the week, head coach Doug Pederson expressed confidence in backup C.J. Beathard and was uncertain if Lawrence would be available.

Lawrence has displayed notable improvement in his second year in Jacksonville. The Clemson product has recorded 2,834 passing yards for 17 touchdowns to just six interceptions. He's also completing 65.6% of his pass attempts.

The Jaguars (4-8) are tied with the Indianapolis Colts for second place in the AFC South.
