Jaguars prepare for Week 5 matchup against Eagles in London
Summary

The Jacksonville Jaguars (3-1) are set to face the Philadelphia Eagles (2-2) in London during Week 5 of the NFL season. Jacksonville is coming off two consecutive victories, while Philadelphia is looking to rebound after a recent loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Key matchups include the Jaguars' defensive strength against an Eagles offensive line impacted by injuries, particularly after Lane Johnson's unexpected retirement and the trade of Cam Jurgens. Both teams will also manage the challenges of international travel. Jalen Hurts’ mobility against the Jaguars’ linebackers and Trevor Lawrence’s ability to protect the ball against the Eagles’ pressures are crucial storylines ahead of kickoff.
