After Trevor Lawrence took a scary hit during the Jacksonville Jaguars game, his wife, Marissa, is speaking out. The fourth-year pro was left shaken, and now she’s sharing her thoughts on the brutal tackle.
While Lawrence is tough as nails, it’s clear the hit left both of them rattled. With the pressure on the Jaguars’ star to stay healthy, Marissa’s insight into the moment adds a personal touch to the high-stakes drama.
Marissa Lawrence Shares Gratitude After Trevor Lawrence’s Brutal Hit
Lawrence’s wife, Marissa, is sending love and gratitude after her husband took a scary hit that had fans and teammates on edge. On her IG stories, Marissa wrote, “Thank you for all the texts and prayers 🤍 Just taking time to make sure he’s okay and get healthy but we appreciate all the support and love.” That hit? Brutal.
In the Jaguars’ 23-20 loss to the Houston Texans, linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair unloaded a brutal hit to Lawrence’s facemask. The blow knocked the QB out cold, leaving him writhing on the turf and igniting a full-on brawl.
Head coach Doug Pederson didn’t mince words, calling the hit “a play that really has no business being in our league.” And he wasn’t the only one mad.
The Jaguars’ defense came charging to Lawrence’s aid, with defensive end Josh Hines-Allen calling it “a dumb hit.” Tight end Evan Engram echoed those feelings, saying, “It was just a dirty play, and you stick up for your guys.”
The scene was tough to watch. After scrambling left and initiating a slide, Lawrence was blindsided with a forearm to the head. His body went stiff as he lay on the field for what felt like forever. His teammates, clearly rattled, rushed to defend him.
Al-Shaair’s savage blow to Lawrence’s facemask not only left the QB shaken but also sparked a full-on brawl. Al-Shaair? Ejected. But now, it’s the NFL’s turn to decide if the LB will face a bigger penalty.
