Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has been placed on injured reserve following a concussion caused by a late hit from Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, who has received a three-game suspension for the incident. The NFL upheld the punishment due to Al-Shaair's repeated violations of player safety rules. Coach Doug Pederson faced criticism for the team’s lack of retaliation during the brawl that ensued post-hit. With the Jaguars eliminated from playoff contention, backup quarterback Mac Jones is set to start as the team seeks to improve its 2-10 record.
