Lawrence – who attended the Jaguars OTAs in Jacksonville earlier this month – explained that both sides wanted to finalize a deal before training camp so they can focus on bringing a championship to Jacksonville.

“It feels good to have done it,” Lawrence told ESPN. “That was a goal that (the Jaguars) and myself and my team wanted to get done: to have it done by the time training camp came around so we could focus everything on this year and get ready to get a championship here . ”
