Jaguars squander second-half lead at Broncos: 3 takeaways
The Jacksonville Jaguars struggled to do much in the second half against the Denver Broncos leading to their first loss of the season.
The Jacksonville Jaguars suffered a 20-13 defeat to the Denver Broncos on Sunday at Empower Field at Mile High, marking their first loss since Week 10 last season. The Jaguars entered the game without much scouting information on the Broncos' use of receiver Jaylen Waddle, who turned out to be their key player, catching seven passes for 109 yards and eight catches for 138 yards in total.
Despite a strong early lead in the third quarter, Jacksonville squandered a 13-3 advantage and could not contain Waddle's impact. The Jaguars' defense managed to force at least one turnover in eight straight games, but it was not enough to secure the victory. With this loss, the Jaguars' winning streak came to an end after an impressive season-opening win over Cleveland.
