00:03 - Dr. Chau, you talked about some of the injuries
00:04 to the quarterbacks.
00:05 Trevor Lawrence is now listed as day-to-day
00:08 with a knee injury, not a large turnaround for Jacksonville.
00:12 They play Thursday night to start off week number seven
00:15 on the road in New Orleans against the Saints.
00:18 Dr. Chau, you've been in those NFL organizations.
00:21 You have sat in those rooms and with the discussions
00:24 of what a timetable looks like
00:25 for a player to get back and healthy
00:28 in a short and compacted week.
00:30 What does that do to the timeline for Trevor Lawrence
00:33 ahead of Thursday night in New Orleans?
00:35 - You know, we judge by video and by video,
00:39 it looks nasty 'cause he's twisted up,
00:41 almost gator rolled on the left side and knee and so forth,
00:45 but that's not a significant mechanism of serious injury.
00:49 The MRIs are reported to be negative.
00:52 It's soreness.
00:53 And a lot of times you hear day-to-day and you're like,
00:56 well, that's code speak, it's not really true,
00:58 and especially with a Thursday game.
01:00 But we kind of believe the day-to-day thing here
01:03 and with the game Thursday,
01:05 we think Trevor Lawrence is gonna play and be fine.
01:07 Look, Trevor Lawrence has established himself
01:10 to the point that if he doesn't take any practice snaps,
01:13 he's still the starter and ready to go on Thursday
01:16 versus the Saints.
01:18 So that's kind of what we're expecting.
