JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence will miss his second straight game with a left shoulder injury.

Coach Doug Pederson ruled out Lawrence on Wednesday and said Mac Jones would start Sunday at Detroit (8-1).

Lawrence suffered a blow to his left shoulder while competing in Philadelphia on November 3. Instead of sliding, he chose to head on and was tackled by linebacker Zack Baun. Lawrence worked in a limited role last week but was eliminated before a 12-7 loss to Minnesota.

“We don’t want to field a player who isn’t 100 percent, so we’re going to rest him for another week,” Pederson said.

Jones made his first start in almost a year last week and completed 14 of 22 passes for 111 yards with three sacks and three turnovers. Jones had two interceptions and a turnover in the fourth quarter. The Jaguars (2-8) finished the series with 143 yards receiving, the fifth-fewest in their history.

Jacksonville has a bye week after playing the Lions, so Lawrence will have three weeks of rest before trying to return to Houston on Dec. 1.

“We have some time,” Pederson said. “It’s still a question mark, but I’m optimistic.”

Lawrence, who was selected first overall in the 2021 draft, missed a game in 2023 for the first time in his professional career due to the right shoulder sprain he suffered in Week 16. He also missed significant training periods due to other injuries: A left knee sprain in the week. 6, right ankle sprain at week 13 and concussion at week 15.

Pederson said last week that he learned from last season that Lawrence needed to practice throughout the week to be fully effective in games.

The Jaguars signed Lawrence to a five-year, $275 million contract extension in June, making him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in NFL history.
