Patriots vs. Jaguars live updates: Score, news, discussion from NFL Week 3

· Yahoo Sports

The New England Patriots are entering the third week of the 2026 NFL regular season trying to end a disappointing streak. They have started every one of their last five campaigns with a 1-2 record.

In order to prevent the same from happening and improve to 2-1 on the year for the first time since their Cam Newton-led 2020 campaign, the Patriots will need to beat another 1-1 squad on the road: the Jacksonville Jaguars, who won their season opener before dropping last Sunday’s game in Denver.

The Patriots, meanwhile, are trending in an opposite direction based on an admittedly small two-game sample size: they lost the NFL opener before rebounding with a win over the Steelers one week ago. Can they make it two in a row? Let’s find out together.

Live score: Patriots 0 : 7 Jaguars

Sunday, Sept. 27, 1 p.m. ET | EverBank Stadium (Jacksonville, FL) | Broadcast information | Inactives | Game day roster | Weather forecast

First Quarter

The Patriots won the toss and deferred, putting their defense on the field to start things off. A pair of Jacksonville penalties started them off moving backwards, before Trevor Lawrence’s attempt to pick up a 3rd-and-8 with his legs was stopped short.

New England’s offense started with two short gains by Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson to set up an opening 3rd-and-5. Forced to use a timeout to avoid a delay of game, Maye then connected with Mack Hollins for a 21-yard gain to move across midfield. The following third-down saw Maye’s pass over the middle to Hunter Henry fall incomplete forcing a punt.

Jaguars’ running back Bhaysul Tuten picked up their first first-down of the day getting around the left edge on the ground. New England’s defense then buckled down, as a big third-down hit by Christian Gonzalez following a short completion led to a punt.

Maye found a pair of first downs with his legs and back to Mack Hollins to again move the offense across midfield. They’re facing a 3rd-and-2, Stevenson just picked up enough on the ground to move the chains. As Maye then looked to push it downfield, the ball slipped out of his hand during his throwing motion which led to the Jaguars recovering the fumble.

Second Quarter

An 18-yard completion to Parker Washington on third-down got the Jaguars offense on the move before the run game set them up just outside the red zone. Then inside the red zone, Lawrence found Josh Cameron over the middle for a 12-yard touchdown. [Patriots 0 : 7 Jaguars]

Two short gains from TreVeyon Henderson set the Patriots up with a 3rd-and-3, where Maye looked to escape up the pocket and move the chains himself but was brought down for a 0-yard sack.
