NFL – Jaguars rule out QB Lawrence against the Lions and hope for return after bye week
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence will miss his second consecutive game because of an injury to his left, non-throwing shoulder. Coach Doug Pederson says Mac Jones will start at Detroit on Sunday. Jacksonville has a bye week after playing the Lions, so Lawrence will get three weeks of rest before attempting to return against Houston in early December. Lawrence took a hit to his left shoulder while scrambling at Philadelphia on Nov. 3. Instead of sliding, he chose to go head-first and got hammered by linebacker Zack Baun. Lawrence practiced in a limited role last week but was ruled out before a 12-7 loss to Minnesota.
NFL – Bears’ Eberflus takes responsibility after firing second offensive coordinator
Matt Eberflus insists he takes responsibility for the Chicago Bears’ failures on offense. He also realizes he’s on his third play-caller in 2 1/2 seasons as coach after firing an offensive coordinator for the second time in 10 months. He let Shane Waldron go this week and promoted passing game coordinator Thomas Brown, hoping he can get the most out of rookie quarterback Caleb Williams. Waldron lasted just nine games after he was hired in January to replace the fired Luke Getsy. Brown will try to get more out of an offense that ranks near the bottom of the NFL. The Bears are averaging fewer yards per game than only two teams.
