Trevor Lawrence also clinched the Nickelodeon Valuable Player of the Week for his stellar four-touchdown performance. The rookie quarterback’s first-ever NVP award brought an unexpected sliming at practice, thanks to teammates Brandon Scherff and Luke Fortner.
In that hilarious moment, green slime ruined Trevor Lawrence’s stunningly beautiful hair. His jersey and shoes weren’t safe either. Teammate Brandon Scherff presented Trevor with his first NVP trophy after the playful prank. Trevor, being a good sport, accepted the sliming with a smile, acknowledging, “You played that off perfectly.” Interestingly, the reporter told Trevor that his wife said it was okay to prank him.

The Jaguars QB also shared a message with Nickelodeon’s young viewers. He said,
“This week’s NVP! Thank you, guys, for the votes and all the kids out there. Work hard and maybe you can be an NVP someday.”
Nickelodeon’s NFL Slimetime has been awarding the NVP since the 2021 season. Linebacker Josh Allen is the only Jacksonville Jaguars player, besides Trevor Lawrence, to receive the honor. He obtained the title after he made a sack, intercepted a ball, and got a fumble on the defensive side of things against the Buffalo team two years ago.

In his second year under coach Doug Pederson, Trevor did his best. In his last season, he threw for 4,113 yards and scored 25 touchdowns. This season being against stronger teams, his touchdown passes decreased a little, but he still managed to accumulate 2,382 yards and 11 touchdowns. It’s evident that Lawrence has grown, and his team relies on him heavily.
