Jaguars dominate Browns in opener

Jacksonville rolled past Cleveland 34-10 in Week 1, looking effortless in their season-opening victory.

Bhayshul Tuten forces seven missed tackles

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten (33) takes to the field before an NFL football matchup at EverBank Stadium on Sunday, Sept. 13, 2026, in Jackso

The running back tied for second-most forced missed tackles among all Week 1 backs. His breakout game feels imminent.

Coen praises Tuten's performance

The head coach has consistently sung Tuten's praises since the game. Tuten looked exactly how many hoped he would.

Nate Boerkircher shines as blocker

The tight end only ran 10 routes but excelled in his blocking role, adding a new dimension to the running game.

Physical blocking transforms the offense

Physical blocking transforms the offense

Adding Boerkircher and rookie guard Emmanuel Pregnon gave the Jaguars a different edge. Their blocking helped all the backs look good.

Travis Hunter locks down as CB1

He was challenged just once in coverage because he genuinely took away his target. The Browns bailed every time they wanted to attack him.

Hunter's defensive debut impresses

His first game as the top cornerback was a big step in the right direction, shutting down a third of the field.

Tanner Koziol unlikely to be active

The fifth-round tight end will probably sit most games unless injuries hit. Jacksonville needs blockers behind Brenton Strange, not receivers.

Wesley Williams buried on depth chart

The fourth-round defensive end was a healthy scratch in Week 1. Even with BJ Green injured, he's behind Bryan Thomas Jr.

Williams faces limited rookie season

The team's defensive end depth makes it hard to see him active for many games this year.

BJ Green sidelined with injury

Coen didn't offer a positive update on Green's Week 1 injury, saying it will be a little bit before he returns.

“It's probably going to be a little bit. We'll figure it out but fully expect Bryan Thomas Jr. to be active this week probably.”

Green's absence hurts special teams

He provides value on both defense and special teams. He won't be on the field for the short-term at minimum.

The key point

Bhayshul Tuten forced seven missed tackles in Week 1, tied for second-most among all running backs, signaling a potential breakout season.
