Lawrence, who said he expects to play against the New Orleans Saints in a Preseason Week 2 road game Sunday, completed six of seven passes for 43 yards on he and the first-team offense's lone series in a 31-25 preseason-opening home loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers this past Saturday.
"We're prepared to go and play a little bit," Lawrence said of Sunday's game at the Ceasars Superdome. "It's just another opportunity for us to get better."
"In the game, a little bit I reverted to some of the old stuff I used to do," he said. "Not a ton, though. I thought it was about what I would expect. That's great practice for me – keeping calm feet, keeping calm eyes, being disciplined with my feet in the pocket, staying in the safe spots, finding those safe spots. I thought overall the game was pretty good, but there were a couple snaps of just bouncing around a little bit that I want to clean up."
Lawrence said improvement has come daily as what is being taught happens more naturally.
"I'm not having to think about it," he said. "I'm not having to say, 'OK, what's my footwork on this play?' I feel comfortable with it. Some of the mechanical stuff that you've done for years – just the way you hitch, the way you transfer weight and some of that stuff – takes a little longer to train out. But we do such a good job of working it in Indy [individual] and all the periods that aren't team periods to where I'm starting to build that muscle memory where I see it carrying over.
