Trevor Lawrence knows playing quarterback in the NFL always comes with plenty of pressure, so the Jacksonville Jaguars signal-caller doesn't plan on feeling the weight of any additional outside expectations after signing a record-setting deal.

"Playing quarterback in this league is pressure anyways," Lawrence said Thursday, per ESPN's Michael DiRocco. "I guess on the outside there's going to be a bigger expectation with the long-term deal and being the franchise quarterback and having the contract. It might change how other people look at it. But for me, I think I've kind of carried that responsibility anyways.
