Jacksonville Jaguars Hold Off Philadelphia Eagles 19–17 Behind Lawrence and Washington
Jacksonville’s balanced attack edged Philadelphia in a close Week 5 contest, with Trevor Lawrence throwing for 331 yards and Parker Washington catching two touchdowns.

The Jacksonville Jaguars secured a narrow 19–17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on October 11, 2026, in a game marked by a tightly contested scoring pace and impactful individual performances. Jacksonville’s quarterback Trevor Lawrence completed 24 of 39 passes for 331 yards, delivering two touchdowns and one interception. His ability to move the offense steadily kept the Jaguars in control, especially in the passing game.
Wide receiver Parker Washington emerged as a key contributor, hauling in six receptions for 124 yards and both of Jacksonville’s touchdown catches. His production provided crucial scoring opportunities that the Jaguars capitalized on, helping offset a relatively modest rushing output from Bhayshul Tuten, who carried 22 times for 72 yards without reaching the end zone.
Philadelphia’s offense struggled to match Jacksonville’s aerial success. Quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 21 of 40 passes for 220 yards and one touchdown, without throwing an interception. Running back Dameon Pierce managed just 14 yards on 11 carries and had negative receiving yards, reflecting the Eagles’ limitations in establishing a consistent ground game.
The scoring unfolded with Jacksonville taking an early 7–0 lead, Philadelphia responding with 14 points in the second quarter, and a seesaw battle through the second half. Jacksonville’s defense and special teams contributed enough to maintain the lead despite Philadelphia’s efforts, highlighted by a touchdown catch from Darius Cooper.
This result confirms Jacksonville’s ability to execute in the passing game and manage close contests. However, the limited rushing touchdowns and the narrow margin suggest the Jaguars must refine their ground attack and defensive consistency to sustain success. Philadelphia’s offense showed flashes but needs a more balanced approach to overcome such deficits moving forward.
