Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is receiving 'around the clock' rehab for the high ankle sprain he suffered during Monday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, according to The Athletic's Jeff Howe.
Lawrence is also yet to be ruled out for this Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns but is said to be too early to tell how his ankle will respond to treatment.
The 24-year-old quarterback was initially injured in the fourth quarter when his ankle was stepped on by Jaguars left tackle Walker Little during a passing play.
Lawrence initially took a couple of steps towards the sidelines before collapsing to his knees and pounding the ground in frustration.
He was then tended to by trainers before requiring assistance as he limped to the locker room and sat out the remainder of the game.

The QB's wife Marissa also shared an image of her DMs on Instagram which were full of people wishing the 2021 No. 1 overall pick well.
Really overwhelmed by people's kindness and love,' Marissa said in a comment attached to the video reel of direct messages.
'Just wanted to share something positive and thank everyone truly for your prayers and support,' Marissa continued.
'Grateful to be surrounded by so many amazing people.'
If Lawrence's ankle does not allow him to return this week against Cleveland, his next chance to play will in a Thursday night game against the Baltimore Ravens.
In the chance the game against Baltimore still proves to be too soon, his next opportunity to get back on the field will be on December 24 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with three games left in the regular season.
