Jamal Agnew’s return vs. Cardinals lands atop NFL’s top-25 plays list for 2021

Jacksonville return Jamal Agnew’s kick-six landed atop the NFL Network’s top plays list Thursday.

There weren’t many memorable moments to hold onto from the 2021 season for  Jacksonville Jaguars fans. The team constantly made headlines for the wrong reasons mostly because of former head coach Urban Meyer while going 3-13. Some of the best moments include the Jaguars’ win over the Indianapolis Colts in the season finale to keep them out of the playoffs.

The best play from last season for the team was without a doubt Agnew’s kick-six right before halftime versus the Arizona Cardinals. On Thursday, the electric return landed on top of the NFL’s top-25 plays list.

Since entering the league in 2017, Agnew’s calling card has been that he’s an explosive returner on special teams. He was an All-Pro during his rookie season recording two punt returns for touchdowns. Agnew also averaged 15.4 yards on punt returns.

He signed with Jacksonville following his first four seasons with the Detroit Lions. Agnew spent most of the season as a returner but saw some time at wide receiver after other players at the position went down to injury or struggled.
