Official: Jaguars 2026 Schedule Released 

SCHED RELEASE OFFICIAL

JACKSONVILLE – The '26 Jaguars will have a prime-time, international feel.

They'll have a big-game feel, too.

The Jaguars in 2026 will play five nationally-televised games – twice internationally and three times in prime time. They will play seven total games against 2025 playoff teams, with the NFL releasing the entire '26 league schedule Thursday at 7:30 p.m.

Among the highlights of the Jaguars' '26 schedule:

A two-game early-season stretch against the teams with AFC's two best records in 2025 – the Denver Broncos (14-3) and New England Patriots (14-3). They are scheduled to visit Denver in Week 2 and play host to the Patriots at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville Week 3. The Jaguars (13-4) had the AFC's third-best record in 2025.

Other highlights:

  • Three prime-time games: At the Baltimore Ravens November 5 (Thursday, Amazon), home against the Pittsburgh Steelers December 14 (Monday, ESPN) and at the Dallas Cowboys December 27 (Sunday, NBC).
  • Two games in London: Home against the Philadelphia Eagles at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium October 11 and home against the Houston Texans at Wembley Stadium October 18. The London games were announced Wednesday as part of the NFL's International Series and will be televised nationally on the NFL Network.

The Jaguars in '26 will play three 2025 division champions in the first five games – Denver, New England and Philadelphia – and because they won the AFC South in 2025, they will play a "first-place" schedule in '26 with five total games against '25 division champions.

They will play host to the Cleveland Browns in Week 1 and visit Denver in Week 2, with a home game against New England before visiting the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 4 before the two games in London.

The Jaguars' bye week will be Week 7 following the second London game, with a Week 8 home game against the Indianapolis Colts before three consecutive road games: At Baltimore Week 9, at the Tennessee Titans Week 10 and at the New York Giants Week 11.

They will then play host to the Titans Week 12, then visit the Chicago Bears Week 13 before playing host to the Steelers in Week 14. Three of the final four games are on the road, with the Jaguars visiting the Texans Week 15 and the Cowboys in Week 16.

The Jaguars will play host to the Washington Commanders 17 and visit the Colts in Week 18, with the times and dates of the final two games to be determined.

The Jaguars in 2026 will play four games each against teams from the AFC North (Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Cleveland) and NFC East (Philadelphia, Dallas, New York Giants and Washington) and six games against AFC South teams (Indianapolis, Tennessee, Houston). They also will play the 2025 first-place teams from the AFC East (New England), AFC West (Denver) and NFC Central (Chicago).

The five games against 2025 division champions are Chicago, Denver, New England, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh – with the Texans making the playoffs as a wild-card entrant in '25. Seven of their 17 games are against teams that had winning records in 2025.
