Trevor Lawrence

Trevor Lawrence is an American professional football quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Collegiate player at Clemson University, Lawrence took over the starting position just 4 games into his freshman year. In just his first season, The Prince That Was Promised would lead Clemson to an undefeated season, a victory in the ACC Championship Game, and from there on to a College Football Playoff National Championship. Lawrence would bring home the Offensive MVP honors for that game while becoming the first freshman quarterback to lead his team to a national championship in more than 30 years. A National Freshman of the Year, ACC Rookie of the Year, and Archie Griffin Award would further decorate his trophy room. Lawrence would continue his stellar run on the collegiate scene again. While inconsistent to start the season, he would still lead Clemson to an undefeated record to a second consecutive CFP National Championship Game. Against LSU, he would suffer the first loss of his collegiate career.

Another stellar year saw Lawrence lead Clemson to their third College Football Playoffs. While the team would go out in the semi-finals, TLaw was sensational for the entire year, finishing his third straight 3,000+ passing yard season. Finishing second in Heisman voting, Lawrence would bag home the Offensive Player of the Year and the ACC Player of the Year award, while winning the ACC Athlete of the Year across all sports. His NFL career, which saw unanimous approval as the first overall draft pick and comparisons to John Elway, Peyton Manning, and Andrew Luck, got off to a disastrous start. For the second year in a row, the Jacksonville Jaguars would finish the year with the league’s worst record and Lawrence’s expensive interception count was a major question mark. However, from the second year onwards, he is slowly starting to quieten the doubters. Even though the 2022 season got off to a slow start, a Week 9 victory would kick off a strong slate for the Jaguars. After winning 7 of their last 9, Lawrence’s spectacular play led him to a Pro Bowl spot. As a team, Jacksonville reached its first playoff berth and won its first Division Title in half a decade.

Trevor Lawrence High School

Lawrence attended Cartersville High School and is widely regarded as one of the greatest quarterbacks to come out of the high school circuit. As a member of Cartersville High School in Cartersville, Georgia, Lawrence broke every record under the sun. Further, his remarkable run would also dictate team victories.

During his years at Cartersville, Lawrence would break the state record for passing yards and touchdowns. However, a more impressive feat during his run was the 41-straight victories he would lead the Purple Hurricanes to. Amid that historic run, two state championships and four region titles would also find their way to his high school record.

A relatively unknown statistic about his time in high school was a rather superstitious record held by Lawrence. One, that would continue deep into his NFL career as well. Since his high school days, Lawrence had never lost on a Saturday. The first defeat that he would suffer would come in the Divisional Round of the 2021 NFL Playoffs against the Kansas City Chiefs. During that playoff run, the streak would be in jeopardy the previous week. But, thanks to a 4-touchdown explosion in the second half, Lawrence led the Jaguars to a 27-point playoff comeback, keeping the streak alive for a little bit longer.

Where is Trevor Lawrence from?

Lawrence was born on October 6, 1999, to Amanda and Jeremy Lawrence in Knoxville, Tennessee. However, he wouldn’t spend much time there, shifting to Georgia for his high school career with Cartersville High School
