- Jacksonville Jaguars stadium scrimmage: Trevor Lawrence connects with Brian Thomas for two TDs
The Jacksonville Jaguars showed some good signs — and one old problem — during their EverBank Stadium Scrimmage on Aug. 1.
The team reported that over 11,000 people attended.
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw two touchdown passes to Brian Thomas Jr. , and one to Brenton Strange to cap a two-minute drill possession, rookie Travis Hunter got in a solid night's work on both sides of the ball, Cam Little showed off his leg by making all three of his field-goal attempts, including one from long distance and Travon Walker and Josh Hines-Allen took turns giving offensive linemen fits in the team's first simulated game action under coach Liam Coen.

Hunter played both offense and defense for the first time in the same practice sessions, with 17 plays on offense and 21 on defense.
The next test comes on Aug. 9 vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers (7 p.m.), in the team's only home preseason game

-
Lawrence was 19 of 27 for 241 yards, Nick Mullens 6 of 11 for 38 yards, John Wolford 9 of 11 for 92 yards; and Seth Henigan 3 of 5 for 19 yards. Lawrence and Mullens threw interceptions, with Lawrence getting picked by Zechariah McPhearson in the end zone from the 12-yard line.
-
Thomas caught six passes for 65 yards, Strange caught five passes for 59 yards, Dyami Brown had four catches for 71 yards and Hunter had three catches for 43 yards.
-
Undrafted free-agent rookie Ja'Quinden Jackson led the team in rushing with 10 carries for 30 yards. LeQuint Allen Jr., scored the game's only rushing touchdown from 2 yards out.

The Jaguars haven't completely put their red-zone issues behind them. Lawrence had two possessions that reached the 9- and the 12-yard lines, ending in a field goal and his interception. Mullens had to settle for a field goal after reaching the 17.
-
The offense had six penalties, with tackle Fred Johnson getting hit with two false starts and Wyatt Milum and Sal Wormley one each. Walker Little and Wormley were called for holding.
Jaguars defense notes
-
Walker would have had at least three sacks had it been game conditions and Hines-Allen was credited with another. On the TD pass from Lawrence to Strange to end the final team period, Tyler Lacy likely would have gotten to Lawrence.
-
Cornerback Jourdan Lewis made a diving interception of Mullens on a pass intended for Trenton Irwin .
-
Linebacker Devin Lloyd blew up several running plays.
-
Other passes broken up were by De'Antre Prince, Ventrell Miller (on the goal line intended for Hunter), Jarrian Jones and Branson Combs.

The defense was penalized four times, including a pass interference call on Tyson Campbell on the two-minute drill drawn by Brown. It put the ball on the 18-yard line.

Little's field goals came from 39, 58 and 35 yards.
