Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence – Photo by: USA Today Travelling with the team is a big step forward, but not the final one. The team may still elect to not start Lawrence against the Bucs depending on how he feels come Sunday morning/afternoon. Teams do not have to disclose who is active/inactive until 90 minutes before kickoff. The game is a late one, starting at 4:05 which means Jacksonville doesn’t have to disclose whether Lawrence is active until 2:35 pm Christmas Eve. And even if Lawrence is active the team may still opt to start backup C.J. Beathard who finished their 31-27 loss to the Browns but did not play against the Ravens. Just last week the Seattle Seahawks dressed starting quarterback Geno Smith for their Monday Night Football matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles but decided to have Smith backup Drew Lock. The team kept Smith’s status unknown up and through the publishing of the inactives list. Lock went on to lead Seattle to a thrilling last-minute 20-17 come-from-behind victory. The Jaguars are currently in a three-way tie atop the AFC South standings, and therefore need this win just as much as the Bucs do. That may push the team to go with a less than 100% Lawrence over the career backup. Lawrence has started 48 straight games to begin his NFL career.
