The Jacksonville Jaguars defeated the New England Patriots 35-6 on September 27, 2026. In a notable play late in the game, quarterback Trevor Lawrence took a knee at the 1-yard line with eight minutes remaining, ostensibly to help running back Bhayshul Tuten's fantasy owners by allowing Tuten to score. Lawrence later acknowledged that the decision may have been excessive given the time left on the clock, indicating that such plays are part of team strategies to manage the game clock.
