Jaguars vs Lions: Final score, recap, and injuries

The Jaguars defeated the Lions 25-27 at Ford Field on Saturday to improve to 2-0 in the preseason. Jacksonville won in Dallas last week and will host Miami next Saturday (Aug. 26) at 7 pm EST.

Quick recap

The Jaguars rested nearly every starter in Detroit, but the backup defense played well by forcing multiple turnovers for a second straight week and holding the Lions to 131 total yards. Jeremiah Ledbetter had a huge first half, including a flashy forced fumble, and Gregory Junior had a punt-return-like interception in the second quarter to set up the team’s first touchdown.
