Trevor Lawrence gained’t be at Clemson’s Pro Day in spite of everything.
It’s powerful in charge Lawrence, who’s undoubtedly the top prospect in the 2021 NFL Draft. In all chance, he’ll be a Jacksonville Jaguar barring a shocking last-minute commerce. With that in thoughts, why would Lawrence danger injury or dangerous press at Clemson’s Pro Day?
The former Tigers quarterback has little or no to realize in performing for NFL groups, however per Ian Rapoport, he “will throw for NFL teams on Feb. 12 instead of participating in Clemson’s pro day next month, per agents MGC Sports. Throwing early will allow him to have a newly discovered injury to his left (non-throwing) shoulder labrum repaired.”
Lawrence’s ailment, which beforehand wasn’t reported, shouldn’t impression his total draft standing.
Trevor Lawrence has been a assured No. 1 decide since his freshman yr
Lawrence and Clemson gained the National Championship in his freshman season, and whereas they failed to succeed in these heights once more in his following two campaigns, it’s powerful in charge No. 16 for that destiny. Lawrence balled out in all three years as a Tiger, to the tune of 90 touchdowns and simply 17 interceptions.
If there’s any chance of Lawrence worsening his injury within the coming months, he ought to keep away from throwing altogether and merely take part in any crew interviews by way of video-call. The concept that any crew would wish to see one of the proficient quarterback prospects in latest reminiscence throw the soccer to solidify their choice is absurd. If Lawrence isn’t the primary identify off the board come April, somebody is getting fired.
Lawrence’s injury occurring on his non-throwing arm is promising compared to the choice, nevertheless. Hopefully the most effective QB prospect since Andrew Luck recovers in ample time for April’s showcase.
