Jaylen Waddle’s quiet Denver debut flips into a 138-yard day in a Broncos’ 20-13 comeback over Jags
The Denver Broncos ended a nine-game winning streak by the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, securing a 20-13 victory. Quarterbacks Jaylen Waddle and Jonah Coleman were instrumental in the comeback, leading the second-half surge. Waddle, who had a quiet debut with one reception for two yards, ultimately finished with an impressive 138 yards on eight catches.
Coleman contributed with a crucial 3-yard touchdown run midway through the fourth quarter, sealing the game after the Broncos had trailed 13-3 early in the third quarter. Trevor Lawrence guided the Jaguars to a 13-3 lead with three scoring drives, aided by field goals by Cam Little. Despite an early deficit, the Broncos tightened their defense and capitalized on a missed tackle early in the second half.
The Jaguars punted on their next possession, and the Broncos effectively managed the final 4:41 of game clock with Coleman's six carries for 33 yards.
