Jacksonville Jaguars 2026 schedule, starting from Week 1 of preseason

The Jacksonville Jaguars have announced their official 2026 NFL schedule, kicking off just over a month from now. The team will begin with three preseason games, followed by the regular season opener.

The preseason games are scheduled for August 15 against the New Orleans Saints at Caesars Superdome, August 21 against the Carolina Panthers at EverBank Stadium, and August 28 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at EverBank Stadium. These three preseason games will serve as a warm-up before the regular season begins.

The Jaguars' first official NFL game of the 2026 season is set for September 13 against the Cleveland Browns at 1 p.m. at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville. The complete 2026 season schedule will see the team play four away games at various stadiums, including Denver, New England, and other venues.

Due to ongoing Stadium of the Future construction, fans can look forward to a reduced capacity of around 43,000-43,500 seats at EverBank Stadium, with no Upper Bowl Sections, Spa/Terrace Cabanas, Sky Patio, Gallagher Club Patio, Standing Room, Gallagher Club Bar Rails and Tables, Bud Light Zone, or Field VIP Club Seats. The team has confirmed these seating changes on their official website.
