Will the Jaguars-Colts game in Week 18 be on TV in your area?

Here’s where Sunday’s game will be locally broadcast on CBS.

Jacksonville is oh-so-close to putting the 2021 season behind it, but before that can happen, it has one more game with draft implications on the line. If the Jags lose the season finale against Indianapolis, they will secure the first overall pick in the 2022 draft. With a win, they could find themselves picking second, instead, if Detroit can spring an upset against the Green Bay Packers.

On the football end, there isn’t much to talk about for this one. The Jags are coming off an embarrassing 50-10 loss at the hands of the New England Patriots, and the Colts can clinch the final AFC playoff spot with a victory. There will certainly be a motivation imbalance, and all the Jags can hope for is that rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence shows something in this game that he can build on heading into his sophomore season.

Watching this game is ill-advised according to most health experts in the United States, but if you really must, it will be televised locally on CBS in the blue-shaded area on the map below, according to 506Sports.

As you can see, CBS wants as few people to see this game as legally possible. It will only be shown in the area surrounding Jacksonville and in a portion of the midwest that includes most of the states of Indiana and Illinois, as well as a small portion of Kentucky, Ohio, and Michigan. Greg Gumbel and Adam Archuleta will be on the call.

The Jaguars will try to end the season on a high note and avoid a winless finish in the AFC South while also knocking a rival out of the postseason on Sunday.

Will the Jaguars-Texans game be on TV in your area?

The matchup between AFC bottom-feeders will be locally televised on CBS at 1 p.m. EST.

The first time the Jacksonville Jaguars faced off against the Houston Texans this year, it didn’t go very well. In the first game of what would prove to be coach Urban Meyer’s only season in Jacksonville, the Jags lost 37-21 as the defense struggled and Trevor Lawrence tossed three interceptions in his debut.

But it’s been 14 weeks since then, and a lot has changed for both teams. The Texans have a new quarterback as Tyrod Taylor, was benched this month. Davis Mills, a third-round rookie out of Stanford, has stepped up, and his rookie season hasn’t gone much better than Lawrence’s. Houston has also since traded one of its best offensive players in running back Mark Ingram II.

Jacksonville, meanwhile, has more personnel continuity (though it is now without receivers D.J. Chark Jr. and Jamal Agnew), but it has made a big picture change. Meyer was fired on Thursday night, and offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell will take on the interim role for the final four weeks of the season. Bevell also served as an interim in Detroit for five games last season after the Lions fired coach Matt Patricia.

For the 2-11 Jaguars, a matchup with a fellow 2-11 team in Houston presents one of only two remaining games that seem winnable, the other being against the New York Jets. The Jags will look to triple their win total from a year ago on Sunday, and for those wanting to catch the game at 1 p.m. EST, it will be broadcast locally on CBS within the orange shaded area below, per 506Sports.

As you can see, the matchup between the two worst teams in the AFC isn’t getting broadcast very far beyond the range it is contractually required to. Very few out-of-market areas will get this game, with its coverage primarily restricted to northeast Florida and the area surrounding the city of Houston. A small sliver of southeast Georgia will also receive the game. For the few who will be able to watch it, Andrew Catalon and James Lofton will be on the call.

It’s been a very frustrating season for the Jaguars, and it’s likely not going to get much better. But with a win on Sunday, they could at least avoid a sweep at the hands of a division rival and one of the worst team’s in football while giving the home crowd its second win of the season at TIAA Bank Field. That’s really all the 2021 Jaguars can hope for, at this point.
