Liam Coen opens up about his heated moment with Trevor Lawrence on the field
In the post-game press conference, the Jaguars coach revealed more details about his heated moment with his quarterback.
Coen said that it was nothing serious, as emotions got the better of him after that pass from Lawrence. He then went on to praise the quarterback's performance.
"It was just one throw," Coen said as per SI. "I was pissed. That's emotion- it's not personal ever. That's just kind of me getting worked up. He threw a dime in the back of the end zone to make a play. I was very pleased with his competitive nature and the way he stayed calm on the sideline. He's pretty even-keeled, which is good for me. I needed that."The Jaguars next face the Houston Texans at EverBank Stadium on Sept. 21.
