Trevor Lawrence knows there’s no time to waste  

Speaking to the side’s official website, Lawrence talked about his goals and target with training camp approaching. Focusing on taking full control, mastering the offense is what Lawrence has on his mind.  

“I want to just master the offense,” Lawrence said. “I want to have complete control, know everything, and be comfortable. You can’t really play free and play really well if you don’t know what you’re doing. That’s the goal, to master the offense by the time training camp comes around.”
