Trevor Lawrence is currently dealing with a shoulder injury. As per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Lawrence is "unlikely" to play against the Minnesota Vikings. Lawrence possesses huge athleticism combined with a high football IQ which relatively placed him in focus right away on rebuilding the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Lawrence's Career and Salary as a Franchise Quarterback
Under Lawrence, the Jaguars returned to the playoffs for this year and even in the first round gave a thrilling win over the Los Angeles Chargers. His performance branded him among the best-paid quarterbacks in the league's history. With this injury, however, Lawrence is unsure if he will make it to the most critical part of the season for his team, and its fans are left holding their breath in dismay.

The Jaguars play the Minnesota Vikings this week and may well miss a start because of the injury. Of course, how bad the injury is has not been released to the public yet, but information has been gathered that it's a shoulder injury and could potentially mean some weeks of inactivity. If Lawrence cannot play, then his replacement will most likely be quarterback C.J. Beathard, who has less experience than the franchise player. The unit may not give its best without Lawrence at the helm and might lose the intact rhythm and explosive efficiency characteristic of the past few games.
Chances and Future in the Playoffs
This is yet again another more worrisome blow to the team as they continue a playoff race. While Lawrence sits for just one game, his lengthy absence pretty much could blow up the Jaguars' chances in this tough AFC. They will be keenly watching how fast Lawrence heals, so he can get back in there and mix it up once again, but until that time it's all about how good the Jaguars can be without Lawrence
Trevor Lawrence's shoulder injury puts his immediate future in serious question, since he is questionable for the Vikings game. Whether playing this season will have everything to do with whether or not the star quarterback heals quickly.
