Why should I root for him to succeed?

How many Jets fans give a [BLEEP] about Trevor Lawrence succeeding?

Do whatever you want. 

He is just a kid though, a good one it seems and he could have been a Jag. I am not just a Jaguar fan, I am fan of football and I like to see players succeed like Mahomes, Josh Allen, Bosa brothers, Lamb, Wills etc.

I like to see good football players too, and I know the Jaguars can't or shouldn't monopolize the great player market.  The NFL could not have grown to what we all know and love without a reasonably equitable distribution of talent.

Even though Barry Sanders was never a Jaguar, it was truly a delight to watch him play.

But given the antagonism from the Jets fans/Jaguars haters in the national media and in general about TL coming to us, I rest comfortably taking some joy in Wilson's struggles.  Had that antipathy from Jets fans not happened, I wouldn't express these sentiments, because otherwise I've little to no reason to hate the Jets.
