The kickoff for the Jacksonville Jaguars’ last game of the 2020 season (against the Indianapolis Colts) has been changed due to the game having playoff implications. Instead of airing at 1 p.m. eastern time on Sunday, June 3, the game will now take place at 4:25 p.m.

While the Jags’ playoff hopes have long been gone, Indy could make the postseason but need one of the three following things to happen in addition to a Week 17 win:
- Baltimore Ravens loss to Cincinnati Bengals
- Miami Dolphins loss to Buffalo Bills
- Cleveland Browns loss to Pittsburgh Pittsburgh
The Jags and Colts have already met once this season. Of course, that game occurred Week 1 and was a 27-20 victory for Jacksonville — their only win of the season.
The Colts were in control of their own destiny and had a playoff spot in their grasp, but lost it after losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers Week 16. As a result, the Jags now have the chance to spoil the Colts’ season if they get the help they need.
