ATLANTA, Ga. – Get in, get work and stay healthy.

That was Head Coach Doug Pederson's plan for 2024 Preseason Week 3, and things for the most part went according to plan for the Jaguars in a 31-0 victory over the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium Friday.

This was a last look at the starters before things get real, and it was a good look.

"I was pleased with our first unit," Pederson said. "The execution was clean."

Quarterback Trevor Lawrence started for the Jaguars, calling it "a good night, very clean."

"I thought it was a good night," he said. "As far as our team, our offense, where we're at, I think we're in a great spot. You have to continue to better even when camp's over. That's the challenge for us."

Friday marked the first game in which the Jaguars' first-team offensive line of left tackle Cam Robinson, left guard Ezra Cleveland, center Mitch Morse, right guard Brandon Scherff and right tackle Anton Harrison started together.

Cleveland and Harrison didn't play in a Preseason Week 1 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs because of injuries, and the Jaguars didn't play starters in a Week 3 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

"I thought they looked good," Pederson said of the line. "They settled in. They did some nice things. It's something we've been wanting to see for a long time. It was good for them to get those two series. It was a chance to settle in, play together and do some good things."

Added Lawrence, "I thought it was great. We got settled in. We ended up only being two drives and they were long drives. We got some different situations, a few third downs in there. We had an opportunity to move the ball. There's always going to be some stuff to learn from that we can clean up, but I thought overall, it was clean, sharp. Guys were physical, ready to play. Um, it's good. It's awesome."

Lawrence completed eight of 10 passes for 91 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions, with two short first-half touchdown passes to tight end Evan Engram giving the Jaguars a quick two-score lead early in the second quarter.

"It was really good to see," Pederson said of the early offensive efficiency.

Those were Lawrence's only two series. He and most Jaguars offensive starters left with a 14-0 lead with just over 9:00 remaining in the first half, having outgained Atlanta 151-85.

"I thought it was good," Lawrence said. "I thought the guys came ready to play. We were physical, detailed and sharp. That's what you want."

Mac Jones, Lawrence's backup, continued a strong preseason and completed 13 of 18 passes for 113 yards with a touchdown pass late in the first half to second-year wide receiver Elijah Cooks. Jones played the final three series of the first half, with the Jaguars outgaining the Falcons 264-97 in the first half and leading 21-0 at halftime.

"It was good to get the touchdown before half," Pederson said.

E.J. Perry, signed by the Jaguars this week after a Preseason Week 2 groin injury sustained by reserve quarterback C.J. Beathard, completed two of two passes for four yards Friday.

Starting running back Travis Etienne Jr. rushed for 46 yards on seven carries for the Jaguars, with backup Tank Bigsby rushing eight times for 40 yards. The Jaguars surpassed 100 yards rushing for a third consecutive preseason game, rushing for 208 yards on 44 carries.

The Jaguars, after going 0-3 in their first preseason under Pederson (2022), are 6-0 over the last two preseasons.
