Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is active and will start Thursday night’s primetime game against New Orleans.
Coach Doug Pederson told the NFL Network that Lawrence, who has been dealing a sprained left knee, will make the start at Caesars Superdome. Lawrence was injured late in last Sunday’s 37-20 win over the Colts.
