Why is a former All-Pro receiver advising Lawrence to come back to Clemson?

Former Pro Bowl wide receiver Roddy White is advising Trevor Lawrence to stay at Clemson if the New York Jets end up with the top pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

The Jets, of course, are the only NFL team remaining in 2020 without a win. They have lost each of their first six games and most of those have not even been close.

Lawrence, who has already guided the top-ranked Tigers to a perfect 5-0 start, is considered to be the top prospect in the 2021 NFL Draft.

So far this season, Lawrence has placed himself at the top of the Heisman Trophy list by completing 73 percent of his 148 passes for 1,544 yards, 15 touchdowns with just one interception.
