Jaguars Deliver Big Plays on Both Sides of the Ball in 42-7 Romp over Rebuilding Colts
Brian Thomas Jr. answered trade rumors with a 12-play, 98-yard touchdown drive as Trevor Lawrence sparked a 42-7 rout, officials said.
On Sunday, the Jacksonville Jaguars dominated the Indianapolis Colts 42-7 at EverBank Stadium, extending their home winning streak against the franchise to 12 seasons.
The Colts entered the matchup with a 2-6 record after recently firing general manager Chris Ballard and trading stars DeForest Buckner and Quenton Nelson to begin a rebuilding effort.
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw for 210 yards and three touchdowns, including an opening-drive 12-yard strike to wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr., while running back Bhayshul Tuten tallied 159 yards of offense and two scores.
Safety Rayuan Lane III secured a 92-yard pick-six, yet the victory was tempered by defensive tackle DaVon Hamilton sustaining a significant right knee injury in the second quarter and being carted off the field.
Now 5-2, the Jaguars prepare for a short week, traveling to face the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night Football as they look to maintain momentum.
The Indianapolis Colts have scored their fourth defeat in the National Football League (NFL). The team of Austria's football star Bernhard Raimann had to face 7:42 (0:28) in the AFC South Division at the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.
