Jags on the mend?
Let’s break out the calculator and do a little math. If he is set to make $55 million a year, that means he is on track to make $150,684 dollars a day, and $6,278 dollars an hour. That would be if Lawrence worked year round, but let’s take into account he only plays 17 games per regular season. When you look at it like that, then he is set to make $3,235,294 per game.
