Jacksonville has won the last five meetings: 23-17 and 36-19 in 2025, 37-34 in 2024, and 37-20 and 31-21 in 2023. BVM Sports notes the Colts have not won in Jacksonville since 2014.

This is a divisional game with a direct effect on the AFC South standings. The Jaguars want to reassert themselves after the Houston loss. The Colts are trying to end a three-game skid.

Injury report

Colts: the final report rules out wide receiver Anthony Gould (concussion) and cornerback Justin Walley (knee). Tight end Drew Ogletree (knee) and linebacker Bryce Boettcher (groin) are questionable, and Boettcher did not practice all week.

Sauce Gardner, Tyler Warren and C.J. Allen no longer appear on the final report. With Walley out, Gushiken Kapena is set for his first start at nickel corner. Alec Pierce remains on injured reserve.

Jaguars: safety Antonio Johnson (ankle) is out. Wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (hamstring/ankle) is questionable and did not practice Friday. Kaevon Merriweather looks the most likely starter at strong safety, per Sports Illustrated.
