Season Outlook

The Jaguars’ 2026 schedule is packed with challenges, including two international games in London against the Eagles and Texans, along with key AFC South battles that will shape their playoff chances. Road trips to Denver, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Dallas, and Indianapolis make this one of the toughest slates in the league.

If Jacksonville can protect home field at EverBank Stadium and split key divisional matchups against the Texans, Colts, and Titans, they will remain firmly in the AFC postseason race. With several prime-time games and high-pressure late-season matchups, the Jaguars’ 2026 campaign promises intensity from Week 1 through the final week.
