"Nasty work by ESPN," "Embarrassing": NFL fans react to video of Trevor Lawrence picking his nose on national TV during Jaguars vs. Chiefs

Trevor Lawrence delivered a statement performance on his 26th birthday Monday, scoring three total touchdowns (two rushing and one passing) against an interception to lead the Jacksonville Jaguars to a massive 31-28 win against the defending AFC champion Jacksonville Jaguars.

As he was sitting on the bench watching what would turn out to be his oppoents' penultimate drive, however, ESPN's cameras managed to catch him picking his nose:

And there was much anger and mockery towards both parties in the aftermath:

@SharpFootball Lmao thats dirty af man you aint had to do him like this

"Leave him alone dude," one demanded.

"Really Trevor? You may have well just eaten it," another retched.

"He was just scratching the interior of his nasal cavity, haters," another digressed.

Kareem Hunt scored a rushing touchdown to end the drive and give the Chiefs a 28-24 lead. However, Lawrence proceeded to find Brian Thomas for a huge 33-yard gain to enter opposing territory.

After a near-interception that was instead declared pass interference, he stumbled while taking a snap but recovered to run to the end zone for a 31-28 lead. The game ended when Mahomes failed to connect with Marquise "Hollywood" Brown on a Hail Mary as time ran out.

Trevor Lawrence, HC Liam Coen react to Jaguars’ MNF win over Chiefs

After the win, Trevor Lawrence and Jaguars head coach Liam Coen were asked about their thoughts. The latter was the first to take the stand:

“It wasn’t perfect by any means, but the resiliency is what I really think this team has. …There was really no flinch or blink when we were down 14-0… It really took all three phases. I thought all three phases really impacted the game.”

He also revealed that he had initially wanted his quarterback to throw an incompletion during the Jaguars’ last offensive to stop the clock and was pleasantly surprised when it instead resulted in a rushing touchdown:

“What an individual effort… I’m proud of the toughness that he showed.”

Lawrence later took the stand himself. After agreeing that he had intended to throw the ball away on that snap, he had some succinct words for what eventually happened:

“It’s a big win. …It was cool for us, showing up on the big stage. It does say something.”

Next for the team is another home stand against the Seattle Seahawks. Kickoff is at 1 pm ET on Fox.
