The Jacksonville Jaguars are currently down by a score of 13-10 at the half, but their offense seems to have gained some momentum. On their last offensive drive, Trevor Lawrence was able to pull the Jags within four after linking up with receiver Marvin Jones Jr. for a 28-yard passing touchdown near the back of the end zone.

Simply put, this is an elite level throw by Lawrence and a heck of an adjustment by Jones on the route. It was a connection that fans have grown accustom to seeing often this year and it’s clear the work the pair put in this offseason is paying off.
The touchdown came on a six-play drive where receiver Laviska Shenault made some key third-down conversions in the process, too. And with the Jags set to get the opening possession of the second half, the hope is that Shenault, Jones, and Lawrence can continue where they left off to get the Jags their first win.
Update: The Jags scored on the first drive of the second half with a 1-yard James Robinson rush. The Jags then took the lead by a score of 17-13.
