Trevor Lawrence threw for 330 yards and five touchdowns while adding a sixth score on the ground Sunday as the Jacksonville Jaguars stayed atop the AFC South with a 48-20 walloping of the visiting New York Jets.
Lawrence completed 20 of 32 passes while adding a team-high 51 yards rushing despite suffering an injury to his right index finger in the second quarter. Trainers taped up his finger, enabling Lawrence to stay in the game.
Jaguars running back Travis Etienne scored touchdowns on each of his three receptions that went for a game-high 73 yards.
New York quarterback Brady Cook hit on 22 of 33 passes for 176 yards with a touchdown and three interceptions in his first NFL start. Cook got the call with Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor sidelined due to injuries.
The result allowed Jacksonville to improve to 10-4, a game ahead of Houston in the AFC South with three weeks remaining. The Jets, who last week were eliminated from playoff contention for the 15th straight year, dropped to 3-11.
Lawrence wasted little time getting his barrage started, hitting Brian Thomas Jr. for a 4-yard scoring strike at the 10:18 mark of the first quarter. It was 14-0 less than four minutes later after Lawrence rushed for a 15-yard touchdown.
Cook got New York on the board via a 9-yard strike to Adonai Mitchell with 1:47 left in the first quarter, but Lawrence hooked up with Bhayshul Tuten for a 16-yard touchdown 46 seconds into the second quarter.
Nick Folk kicked a 41-yard field goal for the Jets with 5:03 on the clock but the Jaguars made it 31-10 at the half on Cam Little's 33-yarder and the first of Lawrence's three scoring strikes to Etienne, a 20-yarder.
Folk bombed a 51-yarder on New York's first possession of the third quarter but Lawrence hit Etienne for an 8-yard touchdown pass at the 7:01 mark, making it 38-13. Little booted a 22-yard field goal with 1:43 remaining in the period.
Isaiah Davis ran 24 yards for the Jets' last touchdown 52 seconds into the fourth quarter before Lawrence found Etienne for a 45-yard strike with 13:40 remaining.
Jacksonville outgained New York 438-284.
