Week 2: at Cincinnati Bengals

Week 4: at San Francisco 49ers
Wide receiver Parker Washington returned a punt 87 yards for a touchdown as the Jaguars improved to 3–1, recorded their first win against the 49ers since the 2005 season, and their first-ever win in San Francisco. Following the game, Jaguars head coach Liam Coen and 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh had to be separated during a heated postgame exchange, after Saleh made a remark earlier in the week about the Jaguars 'legally stealing signals.'
Week 5: vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Playing against the Chiefs on Monday Night Football, the Jaguars snapped their eight-game losing streak against the Chiefs, defeating them for the first time since 2009. Two notable plays occurred during the game. With 2:38 left in the third quarter, Devin Lloyd returned an interception 99 yards for a touchdown, setting a record for the longest defensive touchdown in Jaguars history. The last one came in the final minute of the game, where after quarterback Trevor Lawrence took the snap, he got stepped on by a guard, causing him to fall down, but he managed to get up before being touched and ran into the end zone for the game-winning score, in a play that was known as the "Stumble-Six".
Week 6: vs. Seattle Seahawks
The Jaguars struggled with discipline, committing 10 penalties for 76 yards. A 54-yard touchdown pass from Trevor Lawrence to Brian Thomas Jr. was nullified due to rookie Travis Hunter lining up offside. Lawrence was also sacked a season-high seven times, and for the first time all season, the Jaguars failed to record a takeaway.
Week 7: vs. Los Angeles Rams NFL London games

Week 9: at Las Vegas Raiders
The Raiders took a 23–20 lead with less than two minutes remaining. However, they allowed the Jaguars to march down the field, and Cam Little, who had made a 68-yard field goal on the final play of the first half to set a new NFL record, converted a 48-yarder to send the game into overtime. Although the Jaguars scored a touchdown on their opening drive in overtime, the new overtime rules allowed the Raiders to respond. They marched down the field and scored a touchdown with sixteen seconds left when Raiders' quarterback Geno Smith connected with tight end Brock Bowers for a 2-yard score. Opting to go for a two-point conversion to win the game, Smith’s pass was batted down by DaVon Hamilton, sealing a one-point win for the Jaguars.
In the third quarter, defensive end Travon Walker was ejected after punching Raiders offensive lineman Stone Forsythe following a Raiders field goal. On the final play of the first half, Little made a 68-yard field goal, setting another NFL record for the longest field goal in league history, surpassing Justin Tucker's 66-yard field goal made in 2021.
Week 10: at Houston Texans
The Jaguars started off strong, jumping out to a 17–0 lead by capitalizing on Texans mistakes and extending their lead to 29–10 at the start of the fourth quarter. However, Texans quarterback Davis Mills threw two touchdown passes in the final period and scrambled 14 yards for the go-ahead score with 31 seconds remaining. Meanwhile, the Jaguars went three-and-out on two consecutive drives. The Jacksonville offense got the ball back with 27 seconds left to try to win the game, but Trevor Lawrence was sacked as the Texans completed their comeback victory.
The 19-point blown lead was the largest in Jaguars franchise history. Prior to this game, they were 53–0 in games where they had led by 19 or more points, including the playoffs.
It was later announced that rookie wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter would miss the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery to repair an isolated lateral collateral ligament (LCL) injury in his right knee.
Week 11: vs. Los Angeles Chargers
Jacksonville finished the game with no punts for the first time since Week 2 of the 2010 season. Defensive end Josh Hines-Allen broke the franchise sack record, which had stood for more than 20 years, when he recorded his 56th career sack by bringing down Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert in the second quarter, surpassing defensive end Tony Brackens’ total of 55 sacks during his career with Jacksonville from 1996 to 2003.
Week 12: at Arizona Cardinals
Arizona was able to tie the game with three seconds left in the fourth quarter with a field goal from Chad Ryland to make it 24–24, sending the game into overtime. After winning the coin toss, the Jaguars were able to drive down the field to set up a successful field goal from Cam Little to make it 27–24. The Cardinals were unable to respond with a score after an unsuccessful fourth down pass from Jacoby Brissett downfield to Xavier Weaver, broken up by Andrew Wingard and Christian Braswell, giving the Jaguars their second overtime victory of 2025.
Week 13: at Tennessee Titans
The Jaguars were able to continue their win streak, and take first place in the AFC South, after the Indianapolis Colts lost to the Houston Texans, giving the Jaguars the lead in the division. During the game, an altercation between both teams occurred after Arden Key was penalized for a late hit on Lawrence. Afterwards, Titans safety Mike Brown was ejected after shoving Jaguars punter Logan Cooke.
Week 14: vs. Indianapolis Colts
Colts quarterback Daniel Jones suffered an Achilles injury at the end of the first quarter that forced him out for the remainder of the game. Without Jones, the Jaguars dominated once again at home against the Colts, extending their home winning streak against Indianapolis to eleven games and improving to 9–4.
Week 15: vs. New York Jets
Jets rookie quarterback Brady Cook made his first start with the team. Despite throwing his first NFL touchdown pass, Cook also threw three interceptions to the Jaguars defense, contributing to the 48–20 win for the Jaguars. With the win, the Jaguars recorded their first double-digit win season since the 2017 season.
