Trevor Lawrence is officially a dad after he and his wife Marissa shared some adorable photos with their newborn daughter.
The Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback underwent season-ending shoulder surgery last month and spent the final weekend of the regular season not on the sidelines but instead in the hospital with his partner.
Trevor and Marissa’s family of two turned three on Saturday morning, when Marissa gave birth to their daughter, Shae Lynn.
In a post on Instagram, featuring a series of behind-the-scenes photos of the baby’s first few hours on Earth, it was revealed that she was born at 4:01 am.
In one snap, Lawrence — who recently signed a monster $275 million contract — is seen smiling as he poses next to Marissa and Shae Lynn immediately after birth, and in another snap he carries her out of the hospital.
In another adorable photo, Marissa is seen gazing lovingly at her newborn, with the couple’s beautiful backyard and pool visible in the background.

Lawrence carried the baby in his right arm and had his left in a sling this weekend as he continues his recovery in an effort to be healthy for the start of the 2025 season.
The former No. 1 overall pick hasn’t played since suffering a concussion on Dec. 4 after a controversial hit by Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair.
He ultimately complied with concussion protocol before his shoulder surgery, according to the team. Al-Shair was suspended for hitting the sliding Lawrence in the head.
Lawrence’s announcement about his daughter’s birth came just hours after the Jaguars fired head coach Doug Pederson during the NFL’s infamous “Black Monday.”
He became the first coach to be fired the day after the end of the regular season, after the Jags went a disappointing 4-13.
In a statement announcing the move, Jaguars owner Shad Khan called Pederson an “accomplished football man” and also indicated that GM Trent Baalke would be retained.

“I had the difficult task this morning of informing Doug Pederson of my intention to hire a new head coach to lead the Jacksonville Jaguars,” Khan began.
“Doug is a veteran football man who will undoubtedly enjoy a new chapter in his impressive NFL career, and I will support Doug and his wife Jeannie when that opportunity arises.”
“As much as Doug and I wish his experience here in Jacksonville would have ended better, I have a duty first and foremost to serve the best interests of our team and especially our fans, who have loyally supported our team and belatedly rewarded become. . In that spirit, now is the time to convene new leadership.”
Whoever takes over the team should have a fully healthy Lawrence under center before the start of preseason.
