Trevor Lawrence took a knee at the 1-yard line with nearly nine minutes left in the Jacksonville Jaguars' 35-6 win over the New England Patriots, costing fantasy football owners six points. The Jaguars were leading 28-6 at the time, making the clock-killing decision unnecessary. Lawrence acknowledged the mistake after the game, saying he was trying to eat clock but realized there was still too much time left.

Running back Bhayshul Tuten scored on the next play, giving his fantasy owners the six points instead. Lawrence laughed it off, saying, 'Give Bhayshul a touchdown. That's cool.' Head coach Liam Coen joked that Lawrence wanted to give a touchdown to somebody else.

Lawrence said his teammates were making fun of him for overthinking the play. The incident became a lighthearted moment despite its fantasy football impact.
