The Jacksonville Jaguars (2-1) will face the San Francisco 49ers (3-0) at 4:05 p.m. EST on Sunday, Sept. 28, at Levi’s Stadium.
According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Jaguars are 3.5-point underdogs and the total is set at 46.5 points.
Jacksonville displayed “Huge ability to stay the course” in its Week 3 win over Houston, coach Liam Coen said afterward. “You’re winning the game for the majority of it. They tied it up, but even though obviously not playing our best football offensively, defense kept us in it … Very proud of this group. They played their tails off and kept competing.”
Going forward, the Jaguars may be without starting wideout Dyami Brown, who left Sunday’s game early due to an upper-body injury. But the Niners are among the most banged-up teams in the league right now: Mac Jones re-aggravated a knee injury when filling in for Brock Purdy, who sat out the past two games with toe and shoulder ailments; Nick Bosa (knee) left Sunday’s game early; Jauan Jennings (ankle/shoulder) missed the contest; and Brandon Aiyuk (ACL) and George Kittle (hamstring) remain on injured reserve.
The Niners are undefeated this season, but they are not at full strength. It’s a good opportunity for the Jaguars to steal a game during the toughest stretch of their schedule.
