ESPN analysts taken aback by Lawrence’s comments

Trevor Lawrence’s words in a recent Sports Illustrated story were one of the main topics on ESPN’s “Get Up” show Thursday morning.

The former Clemson quarterback sat down for an interview with SI and, among other things, said, “I want people to know that I’m passionate about what I do and it’s really important to me, but . . . I don’t have this huge chip on my shoulder, that everyone’s out to get me and I’m trying to prove everybody wrong. I just don’t have that. I can’t manufacture that. I don’t want to.”

ESPN’s Louis Riddick said on “Get Up” that he was surprised by Lawrence’s comments.
