Trevor Lawrence ruled out; Jags turn to C.J. Beathard at QB - ESPN

29.12.2023 - 21:41 espn.com

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence will not play against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday because of his sprained right AC joint, a shoulder injury he suffered in last week's loss at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

It's the first game Lawrence has missed since he was drafted first overall in 2021, snapping a streak of 49 consecutive starts that had him tied with Patrick Mahomes for the second-longest active streak among quarterbacks.

C.J. Beathard will make his first start since the final game of the 2020 regular season with the San Francisco 49ers. Lawrence didn't practice at all this week because of the injury to his throwing shoulder, although he was out at Wednesday's practice in shorts and a hoodie.

Sunday is a critical game for the Jaguars (8-7), who have lost four in a row and are tied atop the AFC South with the Texans and Colts.

Young Pakistan fast bowler Abbas Afridi was on Tuesday ruled out of the third T20I while hosts New Zealand lost the services of their captain Kane Williamson for the remainder of the five-match series. The Pakistan team management confirmed in a statement that a low grade abdominal muscle strain to Afridi will keep him out of the third T20I, with a decision on his availability for the remaining two matches to be taken later. “His scan has shown no sign of significant injury, and he will be managed symptomatically. His availability for the last two games will be made at a later stage,” the management statement said.
