His mic’d-up video is now going viral on social media depicting the bone-chilling moment from misery to winning the game.

Trevor Lawrence, has time and again proved why he was selected first overall by the Jaguars in 2021. As they say, leadership matters, and getting a win out of blue and covering up the 27 points deficit out of nothing is world class stuff.

The zero-to-hero story unlocked several achievements and records for Lawrence in his professional career. He became the only quarterback to throw an interception during his first two career playoff drives. While the first half recorded three interceptions, the quarterback mitigated its impact with a touchdown in the second quarter. However, the agony didn’t stop there as he got picked again and posted the score 27-7 by the end of the first half. Thereafter, the Clemson product shifted gears and passed for three touchdowns surpassing the Chargers’ lead.
