Jacksonville’s preseason is almost at an end, but it solved the primary order of business. Coach Urban Meyer named Trevor Lawrence the team’s starting quarterback this week, meaning that the quarterback competition is officially over.
However, that doesn’t mean the preseason finale against the Dallas Cowboys is devoid of interest. The battle to be Lawrence’s backup is still ongoing, and there will be players all over the field competing to crack the final roster. Further, Meyer said that most of the starters will play in this one, though it’s unclear for how long.
The Jags defense won’t see Dallas stars Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott in this one, but the offense will have to contend with rookie linebacker Micah Parsons, who has been a stud in the preseason thus far. The game kicks off at 1 p.m. on Sunday, and it will be nationally televised on the NFL Network. However, fans in the Jacksonville market will have to watch the game on local television. Here’s what you need to know to follow this one.
