Jacksonville native Mac Jones started at quarterback for the Jags last week in the 12-7 loss.

Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson discussed the decision to give Lawrence one more week of rest in his Wednesday media availability.

“Trevor (Lawrence) will be out. We just decided this week. He’s getting close, but don’t want to put a player out there that’s not 100%–We’re going to rest him one more week.”

You can watch the Jaguars take on the Lions at 1 p.m. on CBS47.
