Plus it's his best chance to force a trade to a better organization. The Jags and Jets could just as well be in the same place next year, and Lawrence also takes the injury risk in going back to school. The leagues too competitive for teams to intentionally keep a guy like him out of the league on principal.
That said, I expect the Jets will have a new Management in place to try and appeal to him....even if it's the same problem owner.
