Parker Washington Sets Punt Return Record in London

In an impressive display at Wembley Stadium, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington achieved a franchise-record 96-yard punt return touchdown during a game against the New England Patriots. Catching the punt at his own 4-yard line, Washington skillfully navigated past defenders to score, bringing the Jaguars back from a 10-0 deficit to a 22-10 lead by halftime. This remarkable return not only broke the previous record of 91 yards set by Keelan Cole in 2020 but also marked the first special teams touchdown in NFL International game history. The Jaguars scored all 22 points in the second quarter, which included a rushing touchdown and a passing touchdown. Washington’s performance highlights his pivotal role as the primary punt returner following an injury to Devin Duvernay, although he has had limited receptions this season. Overall, the game showcased Washington's athleticism and strategic play, contributing significantly to the Jaguars' victory.
