Jaguars Beat: QB Trevor Lawrence progress worth the wait

The Athletic

Dec 23, 2025 · 9:51 AM EST

Liam Coen’s offense, which is loaded with principles from his four seasons with Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay, was always going to take time to implement with the Jaguars. Before the season, a source with knowledge of the system predicted it would take at least half the year before Trevor Lawrence felt comfortable, and that his trajectory might not truly begin to soar until 2026. Considering Coen’s success in 2024 with quarterback Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, along with the impression he left with two seasons at Kentucky, there was confidence Lawrence’s progress would be worth the wait.

Fantasy Impact:

The author pointed out the trend up may carry right through 2026 before we see the final result. It will be worth nothing for fantasy owners who may already be looking ahead to next season's draft rankings. Lawrence is very likely to climb QB ranks heading into drafts next summer. The story pointed out the trade for Jakobi Meyers and the return of TE Brenton Strange has helped everyone in the offense, even Brian Thomas Jr. who has mostly struggled this season. While the Jags are not dominating the run game, the author said the commitment to the run and the balance have helped the offense. Lawrence is also being used as a designed runner.

Buccaneers WRs Mike Evans, Jalen McMillan 'in play' for Week 15

Pro Football Talk

The Buccaneers are leaving the door open for three offensive players to return to action against the Falcons on Thursday night.

Head coach Todd Bowles said at a Monday press conference that wide receiver Mike Evans, left tackle Tristan Wirfs and wide receiver Jalen McMillan are “in play” to be in the lineup in Week 15.

Related players: Baker Mayfield, Chris Godwin, Emeka Egbuka

Fantasy Impact:

Evans and McMillan both returned to practice last week and will need to be activated from injured reserve to play in the game. Evans has been out since fracturing his clavicle in Week 7 while McMillan has missed the entire season with a neck injury, the story points out. It will be more weapons for Mayfield heading down the stretch of the season and for the fantasy playoffs. The top three should remain Evans, Godwin and Edbuka but Edbuka hasn't posted more than 45 receiving yards since Week 10.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield "trending" to start Week 13

Coach Todd Bowles says Baker Mayfield looked good today and trending to start vs. Cardinals.

Related Players: Teddy Bridgewater

Fantasy Impact:

Mayfield looked well on his way to an inactive designation this weekend, but things have flipped for the better over the course of the week. If he does end up seeing the field, he's in fringe QB1/2 range against a good Arizona defense.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield a non-participant, RB Bucky Irving full at Wednesday's practice

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield was listed as a non-participant in today’s practice due to his sprained AC joint while RB Bucky Irving was listed as a full participant.

Related Players: Teddy Bridgewater, Rachaad White, Sean Tucker

Fantasy Impact:

The Bucs kept the passing offense pretty dang conservative with Bridgewater in last week, so we wouldn't expect him to be much more than a lower-end QB2, even with a full game to work.

We'd like to say Bucky Irving will return to his typical 25-opportunity upside, but it was mentioned that he may be eased in, as the team did with Chris Godwin. If that's the case, he's closer to a low-end RB2 than a locked-in RB1 like we came into the season hoping. Tucker and White are more desperation-FLEX options.
