EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars won out against Zach Wilson and the New York Jets in Week 16.
The Jaguars took an early lead and held onto it, ending the game with a score of 19-3
Both teams have come a long way since the previous meeting. This year, the Jaguars (6-8) and Jets (7-7) are in the middle of a playoff race in a jumbled AFC so there’s plenty at stake Thursday night.
Recap:
In the first three minutes of the game, Quinnen Williams, Defensive Tackle for the New York Jets, managed to force an early turnover. This set the Jets up for a field goal attempt, which was good.
The Jaguars' next drive got them down the field a bit with a nice play by Evan Engram but in the end, the team went for a field goal to tie things up, 3 - 3, in the first quarter.
Big-time drive by the Jaguars! They go 16 plays for 96 yards capped off by Trevor Lawrence’s stretch over the top for the touchdown. 10 - 3, Jaguars.

In the third quarter, Kicker Riley Patterson extends the lead for the Jaguars by knocking in a field goal, bringing the score to 16 - 3.
