The Jacksonville Jaguars made an odd decision to keep quarterback Trevor Lawrence on the field at the start of the fourth quarter of the Week 18 game against the Tennessee Titans, but he has since been pulled.
With the Jaguars staked to a 34-7 lead in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest, the Jaguars kept Lawrence in the game, which was obviously a very risky decision.
Thankfully, the Jaguars finally made the decision to pull Lawrence after he reached 255 passing yards, which puts him over 4,000 for the season.
Why Jaguars pulled Trevor Lawrence vs. Titans
There was simply no reason to keep Lawrence on the field other than allowing him to reach 4,000 yards, which he successfully did. Even still, the risk of injury was too great to do that, but thankfully the Jaguars didn't end up paying the price.
The Jaguars had a massive lead over the Titans and if not for his desire to reach 4,000 yards for the first time in his career, Jacksonville would've made the decision earlier.
