Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence Pays Jakobi Meyers Ultimate Compliment

"He is really unselfish. That's the cool thing is you watch him block -- I think everyone that wants to be a great wide receiver should go watch him block," Lawrence said.

"And that's that's something that team, you know, teams need, and your teammates know. I mean, our O-line loves that guy because they see how he blocks on run plays. And that means a lot as far as just building the culture of your team."

The Jaguars landed Meyers by trading just a 2026 fourth- and 2026 sixth-round pick to the Las Vegas Raiders. For just those two Day 3 picks, the Jaguars landed a receiver who deserves at least some of the credit with Lawrence's rapid ascent over the final few months of the season.

"I was really excited. I've watched him a lot over the past few years. Just seen him play. The way he plays is something that I always liked. He's really tough, makes, I mean, just catches, everything. Makes a lot of contested catches. Can create separation at the top routes, so he doesn't get enough credit for that," Lawrence said.

"He's a great route runner. Has a lot of feel, can run, and he knows zones. You know, he's smart. You can tell he has good spatial awareness. So all those things I was excited about, and then I just heard about the type of person he was. I heard great things once we got him from guys that play with him, and that kind of solidified, all right, now I'm super excited, because that's the only thing -- you don't know a guy personally. "
