We may be stuck in the doldrums of summer between organized team activities and fall camp, but that doesn’t mean the work stops for Jaguars first overall pick Trevor Lawrence. The quarterback was spotted practicing with some of his Jacksonville teammates at the Clemson football facility Wednesday morning.
According to a tweet from Tigers receiver coach Tyler Grisham, the grounds crew at Clemson specifically painted the hash marks on the field to mimic NFL dimensions for the throw-around session.
The video is from afar, but both DJ Chark Jr. and Marvin Jones Jr. posted videos from their Instagram story feeds of them visiting Clemson’s facility.

We’re still more than two weeks out from the start of fall camp on July 31, but it should be encouraging for Jaguars fans to see Lawrence working with teammates on his off time. The rookie was a bit limited during OTAs as he recovers from surgery to his non-throwing shoulder in the spring, but he’s expected to be fully healthy this fall and compete for the starting job.
Fans certainly hope to see him line up under center Week 1, and though he won’t claim that spot unchallenged, it’s clear he’s putting in the work with his new teammates.
