Two drives of Trevor Lawrence and one drive of Patrick Mahomes was a needed reminder that the NFL regular season is near and teams will soon be humming. Each starter led their team to points, but the Jacksonville Jaguars managed to outplay the Kansas City Chiefs in the end, 26-13.

PLAYER OF THE GAME
The Jaguars' safety rotation is relatively wide open, and veteran safety Terrell Edmunds clearly wants to be part of it. He made a few big hits in this game, forced two fumbles and allowed just six yards in coverage to go along with two stops (tackles that led to a failure for the offense).
