And then there were two. The Jacksonville Jaguars join only the Tennessee Titans among teams still in pursuit of a win in 2024, and the Titans will attempt to leave Jacksonville in the dust on Monday night.

The Jaguars fell to the Houston Texans, 24-20, in Week 4 after an impressive game-winning drive led by C.J. Stroud, Nico Collins and Dare Ogunbowale.

Houston throughout the game attacked Jacksonville cornerback Ronald Darby with a heavy dose of Collins and Stefon Diggs, and the veteran defensive back surrendered more than 150 yards in coverage overall, pending reviews.
