**PALM BEACH, Fla. –** At quarterback, Liam Coen likes what he's hearing.
[Trevor Lawrence](/team/players-roster/trevor-lawrence/) is getting healthier as the 2025 offseason program approaches. He continues to give the right vibe. He's ready to work and ready to improve.
_That's just the start, but it's a good start._
**"He's hungry; I would say that for sure," Coen said.**
Coen, the Jaguars' first-year head coach, spoke to the media early Monday morning at the [AFC Coaches Breakfast at the 2025 NFL Owners Meetings at The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.jaguars.com/video/k000217-jaguars-hc-liam-coen-2025-nfl-owners-meetings-press-conference) – and among the key topics was Lawrence's health and future.
Lawrence, the No. 1 overall selection in the 2021 NFL Draft and the Jaguars' starting quarterback the past four seasons, missed the last four games of the 2024 regular season and underwent surgery on his left (non-throwing) shoulder on December 17.
> "He's getting better," Coen said. "He's throwing a little bit, and he'll be able to get going in the spring and be able to throw a little bit more.
**"He's getting better and better each day."**
Coen under league rules has not yet been able to work with Lawrence. Coen was hired in January and league rules mandate that coaches and players not talk football extensively until the beginning of the offseason program.
The Jaguars' 2025 voluntary offseason program can begin Monday, April 7.
> "We've had some really good conversations," Coen said of Lawrence. "I haven't been able to work with him quite yet, but we've gone out to dinner a few times, and I saw the vision."
Coen on Monday reiterated what he has said multiple times since his hiring – that he likes Lawrence's approach and mindset. He said it is clear that Lawrence is "physically and mentally tough."
