Trevor Lawrence forgoes touchdown for teammate in Jaguars victory
Summary

Trevor Lawrence had a notable moment during the Jacksonville Jaguars' 35-6 win against the New England Patriots on September 27, 2026. With the game in the fourth quarter, Lawrence opted to take a knee at the one-yard line instead of scoring, allowing running back Bhayshul Tuten to secure a touchdown. This decision has drawn criticism from fantasy football owners who noted the missed points. Lawrence defended his choice, expressing support for Tuten's contributions to the team. Despite Lawrence's 23.78 points in PPR leagues, some fantasy players may feel disadvantaged.
