The AFC South suddenly has two impressive young quarterbacks in Trevor Lawrence and CJ Stroud, and some are excited about the possibility of seeing them battle for years to come. Just don’t count Lawrence among them.
Lawrence was asked Sunday if the prospect of future matchups with his Houston Texans counterpart was exciting to him. The Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback admitted that it was to a degree, but also shared his true feelings.
Trevor Lawrence with the most honest answer of his career maybe when asked about excitement about facing Stroud, the level of play:

“I want the teams in our division to be as bad as possible,” Lawrence admitted.
Points for honesty here. Talent on other teams will only make it harder for the Jaguars to win the division and make the playoffs consistently, even if he may appreciate the competition.
Lawrence came out on top Sunday with a narrow 24-21 win. However, the Texans could not have come much closer to tying it in the game’s dying moments.
