The Jaguars are trying to maked amends in Houston. Jacksonville’s defense is doing its best to contain C.J. Stroud and the Texans and lead 13-7 at halftime at NRG Stadium. Trevor Lawrence scored his third rushing touchdown in two games and Brandon McManus booted a pair of field goals for Jacksonville. Lawrence had a would-be touchdown dropped by Calvin Ridley in the end zone on a third-down play with just under three minutes to play in the half that forced Jacksonville to settle for a McManus 48-yard field goal. Jacksonville leads the AFC South by a game over the Texans. A win by Houston would move into the top spot. The Texans walloped the Jaguars 37-17 in Week 3. Jacksonville has a couple injuries of note. A big loss in the opening half was Jaguars left tackle Cam Robinson. He left after a Lawrence incompletion in the first quarter and suffered a knee injury. Robinson was seen on the sideline with tears in his eyes and wrapping a towel around his face. Running back Travis Etienne left with a chest injury and went to the locker room but returned late in the second quarter.Read the full article:https://www.news4jax.com/sports/2023/11/26/halftime-update-jaguars-in-a-slugfest-against-texans/
