Trevor Lawrence, the former Clemson quarterback and current Jacksonville Jaguars star, has secured a major contract extension.
On Thursday, Lawrence and the Jaguars finalized a five-year, $275 million deal, including $200 million in guaranteed money. This makes Lawrence, along with Cincinnati Bengals’ Joe Burrow, one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL, earning $55 million annually.
Drafted first overall in 2021, Lawrence has shown significant potential despite injuries. With career stats of 11,770 passing yards, 58 touchdowns, and 39 interceptions, he aims to rebound from a tough 2023 season and lead the Jaguars back to the playoffs. This extension solidifies Lawrence’s future in Jacksonville and reflects the team’s confidence in his abilities.
