“Ended the night not the way we were expecting. Thank you for all the prayers and support! Football is a crazy life and I love that this page brings a spotlight to the women because it truly takes someone special to walk this walk.

Jaguars Coach Doug Pederson described Trevor Lawrence’s condition on Tuesday as “stable” and would not say either way if he thought his QB would play in Sunday’s away game against the Cleveland Browns.
“I’m not going to put that timetable on Trevor,” Pederson said. “I’m not gonna put him in a box like that. We’ll see how he is in a couple of days.”
