Jaguars Open New Regime with 26-10 Season-Opening Win over Panthers

News summary

The Jacksonville Jaguars opened their 2025 NFL season with a commanding 26-10 victory over the Carolina Panthers, showcasing a strong performance by their new regime. Trevor Lawrence threw a touchdown pass, and Travis Etienne rushed for 143 yards, while Brian Thomas Jr. also contributed a rushing touchdown. The Jaguars controlled both lines of scrimmage and benefited from a revitalized defense, with newcomers Jourdan Lewis and Eric Murray making impactful plays, including a key interception by Foye Oluokun. The game was delayed over an hour due to nearby lightning strikes, but Jacksonville maintained momentum after the break. First-time head coach Liam Coen, general manager James Gladstone, and executive vice president Tony Boselli received praise for their leadership, complemented by first-time offensive and defensive coordinators. Meanwhile, Panthers quarterback Bryce Young struggled again in a season opener, throwing two interceptions and a fumble, continuing a pattern of poor starts in previous years, and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter played both offense and limited defense in his debut, showing promise despite a close interception by a Panthers defender.
