Overview
- Jacksonville rallied Saturday from a 14-point halftime deficit to score 18 unanswered points and win 24-20 at the Caesars Superdome.
- Rookie running back J'Mari Taylor carried 22 times for 78 yards and scored the decisive 2-yard touchdown with 4:55 remaining after undrafted QB Joey Aguilar completed a 43-yard pass to Trebor Pena to set up the play.
- New Orleans' Zach Wilson relieved Spencer Rattler and completed 11 of 16 passes for 145 yards and a short touchdown while Jacksonville's backups combined effective drives with turnovers earlier in the game.
- Jacksonville's offensive line took an early hit when right tackle Chuma Edoga left on the first offensive snap and the Saints lost RB Audric Estime to a knee issue, raising short-term depth concerns for both clubs.
- Both teams will use upcoming joint practices and remaining preseason games to sort roster spots and evaluate bubble players with standout performances boosting chances for the 53-man roster or practice squad and injuries likely to prompt personnel moves.
