The Jaguars (6-8) get set to take on the New York Jets (7-7) on Thursday Night Football in primetime. Jacksonville looks to win their third-straight game.
for both squads. It's an opportunity for the Jaguars to win three games in a row, something they haven't done since 2017. The Jaguars have also lost their past four games at MetLife Stadium.
For Jacksonville, the team controls its own destiny. If they win out, meaning, if they defeat the Jets, Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans , they'll get an opportunity to host a playoff game as the winner of the AFC South. "Definitely excited to get back," Engram said in the locker room Tuesday."I had fun playing there. So, I had a very fortunate, blessed five years there. So it definitely will mean something but I'm definitely locked in on just getting a win, doing whatever it takes to win."
Another hurdle is the turf at MetLife Stadium, which has been talked about around the league for years now. Engram has dealt with it plenty and says that"people definitely have their stories," but the biggest adjustment will be the fact that the team has played on grass over the past couple of weeks and practiced on grass. So, there will be an adjustment.The Jets feature one of the best defenses Jacksonville will face this season. The Jets are ranked No.
The Jets have nine defensive linemen with at least one sack this season. That includes big-man defensive tackle Quinnen Williams, who leads the team with 11 sacks on the year. "You can see that watching the tape. He’s really made an impact early on in his career there, so he’s a good player.”
