Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is inactive for Sunday’s game against the visiting Minnesota Vikings as he deals with an AC joint sprain in his left (non-throwing) shoulder.

NFL Network reported that rest and rehab appear to be the plan of the Jaguars (2-7) for Lawrence. However, surgery remains an option Lawrence and the Jaguars will consider.

Mac Jones, who was acquired by Jacksonville via trade in March, will start Sunday’s game versus the Vikings (6-2).

Lawrence, 25, will miss the second game of his NFL career.

He sustained the injury in the second quarter of Jacksonville’s 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday. He finished the game, however, and completed 16 of 31 passes for 169 yards and two interceptions.

Jones became party to a controversy when current Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores was fired by the Dolphins. According to former NFL executive Michael Lombardi, Flores told his then-starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa that Miami should’ve drafted Jones instead. As the starting quarterback of the Patriots, Jones lost to Flores and the Dolphins twice in 2021.

The No. 1 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Lawrence has completed 61.3 percent of his passes for 2,004 yards, 11 touchdowns and six interceptions through nine starts in 2024.

Also on Sunday, the Jaguars listed defensive end Myles Cole, offensive lineman Ezra Cleveland and defensive tackles Esezi Otomewo and Maason Smith.

Cornerbacks Fabian Moreau and Dwight McGlothern, defensive lineman Levi Drake Rodriguez, offensive linemen Dan Feeney and Walter Rouse, and quarterback Brett Rypien are inactive for the Vikings.
