The Jaguars and Patriots will meet in a Week 3 matchup on Sunday afternoon, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET from EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville, FL.
Tickets for the game are available now on StubHub. The current get-in price is $250, with lower-level seats starting at $285 and club seats at $500.
Jacksonville enters the game after a season that ended in the Wild Card round, but the team’s progress under first-year coach Liam Coen is still part of the bigger picture. New England arrives with its own expectations, as Drake Maye and Co. look to build toward back-to-back Super Bowl appearances.
For the Jaguars, the Week 3 meeting is one stop in a schedule that opens with the Browns on Sunday, Sept. 13, then a trip to the Broncos on Sunday, Sept. 20.
After the Patriots, Jacksonville goes to the Bengals on Sunday, Oct. 4 before two London games against the Eagles on Sunday, Oct. 11 and the Texans on Sunday, Oct. 18.
The Jaguars’ bye comes in Week 7, and their slate also includes home games against the Colts, Titans, Cowboys and Commanders, plus road dates at the Ravens, Giants, Bears, Steelers and Texans.
New England’s schedule starts earlier than most, with a Wednesday, Sept. 9 trip to the Seahawks. The Patriots host the Steelers on Sunday, Sept. 20 before heading to Jacksonville for the Week 3 clash.
Their season also includes games at the Bills, Dolphins, Chargers, Chiefs and Jets, plus home dates against the Raiders, Jets, Packers, Bills, Vikings and Broncos. The Patriots’ bye falls in Week 11.

Jaguars Suddenly Changed Course Behind Trevor Lawrence For One Big Reason
Ahead of cutdown day, the Jaguars made a late change behind Trevor Lawrence by acquiring quarterback Quinn Ewers from the Dolphins for a 2028 sixth-round pick. The move gives Jacksonville a new backup option after Nick Mullens was released from the active roster, then brought back on the practice squad, while general manager James Gladstone praised Mullens for the professionalism and value he brought to the team.
Ewers now steps into a role that is often easy to overlook until it suddenly matters, especially for a team trying to keep its quarterback room steady as the season approaches. The Jaguars clearly wanted a different kind of insurance behind Lawrence, and the swap leaves one question hanging around the depth chart as Jacksonville settles in for the next phase of roster decisions.

Jaguars Just Opened The Door For A Bigger Move Than Fans Expected
The Jaguars have quietly created more room to maneuver by restructuring Josh Hines-Allens contract, converting $5.7 million of his 2026 base salary into a signing bonus. The move opens up $4.56 million in cap space for this season and lifts Jacksonvilles total room to $14.22 million, giving the front office more breathing room than it had earlier in the offseason.
General manager James Gladstone said the adjustment was made to keep financial flexibility available for roster moves or extensions as the season unfolds. For a team still shaping its plans, that kind of cap space can matter in a hurry, especially if Jacksonville decides it needs to act quickly once the market starts to move. [Read more 🡒]
Two Unexpected Jaguars Earned Roles That Could Matter Right Away
With the Jaguars down to their 53-man roster, two of the more interesting names to survive cutdown day were Ameer Abdullah and Jahlani Tavai. Neither player arrived with the kind of spotlight that usually follows roster locks, but both made a clear case in camp and the preseason, turning steady work into real roles for an opener that already has a few moving parts.
Abdullah is expected to factor into the passing game, while Tavai gives Jacksonville needed depth at linebacker and on special teams, which makes both spots especially valuable early in the season. Head coach Liam Coen and general manager James Gladstone both singled out their professionalism and how much they added to the group, and for a roster still sorting out its identity, those are the kind of contributions that can matter fast.
