Trevor Lawrence Jokes About Cutting Hair to Break Supposed Super Bowl Curse

Former Clemson great Trevor Lawrence might be the NFL’s golden boy with the golden locks—but is there a hidden curse tied to his flowing hair?

That’s the quirky question raised on a recent episode of Pardon My Take, Barstool’s flagship podcast, where hosts PFT Commenter and Big Cat pressed the Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback on a surprising stat: No long-haired quarterback has ever won a Super Bowl.

“Really? Never?” Lawrence asked in disbelief, eyebrows raised.

The hosts tossed out names—Joe Namath, Ben Roethlisberger—but admitted those guys only had “shaggy” or “half-long” hair at best. Trevor, known for his shoulder-length, shampoo-commercial-worthy mane, laughed and jokingly stood up from his seat after being asked what he thought about that info: “I’ll be right back… That’s a crazy stat.” Even NFL legend Tom Brady, after a Super Bowl loss to the New York Giants, famously shed his longer hairstyle for a fresh, short cut the very next season.

PFT teased him with the dilemma: “You could look at it one way or the other… cut your hair and win the Super Bowl… or break the curse.” But here’s the thing: the curse may already be broken.
