Right now, Trevor Lawrence is wishing he could go back to college.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have been generating an insane amount of negative headlines during his rookie season, and the QB appears sick of it all.
During this Wednesday’s press conference, Lawrence responded to all of the drama surrounding his head coach and the franchise in general.
“You’re always going to have some form of drama. I’ve learned that the NFL is just more drama in general than college, no matter where you’re at,” Lawrence said, per ESPN’s Michael DiRocco. “But you’re right. There’s been a lot. To your point, I do think that has to change and that’s something that we need to work on for sure.
“So you can’t always be in the headlines. You just got to go play football and that’s where we’re trying to get and I have no doubt we’ll get there, but for sure [it has to change].”

The non-stop issues with Urban Meyer has taken away from his rookie year and likely contributed to his struggles with consistency. He enters Week 15 of the regular season with 2,735 passing yards, nine touchdown passes and 14 interceptions.
Just hours after Lawrence made that comment, former Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo alleged that head coach Urban Meyer kicked him in the leg while stretching in warm-ups before a practice during the week of the final preseason game.
Lambo said Meyer told him, “Hey Dips—, make your f—ing kicks!” and then kicked him in the leg. Lambo characterized the kick as a five out of 10 and then told the Tampa Bay Times he told Meyer: “Don’t you ever f—ing kick me again!” Lambo said Meyer told him, “I’m the head ball coach. I’ll kick you whenever the f— I want.”
The drama never stops.
