Sunday morning’s London matchup between the Texans and Jaguars has a few appealing touchdown angles, especially with both offenses showing enough juice to keep the scoreboard moving.
Jacksonville comes in with Trevor Lawrence and a chance to move to 5-1, while Houston is looking to build on its win over Tennessee after opening 0-4. The Jaguars have been sharp on offense through five games, ranking sixth in EPA/Play, and both teams are putting up at least 22 points per game in 2026. Even with that production, the total sits at 42.5 after Jacksonville managed just 36 points in its first London game of the season against Philly.
That sets up a pretty straightforward search for touchdown scorers, and three names stand out.
Woody Marks is the Houston back I want most here. With David Mongtomery (groin) banged up, the second-year runner should be in line for a much bigger workload.
He handled 15 carries and added four catches in Week 5 against Tennessee, finishing with 85 total yards while playing 84.8 percent of the snaps. He didn’t score last week, but he’s already shown he can finish drives, with two rushing touchdowns in Weeks 3 and 4.
The passing-game role helps too: Marks has caught 11 of 13 targets this season, and Jacksonville just allowed a rushing score to Eagles starter Will Shipley in Week 5. The Jaguars are No. 1 in the NFL in EPA/Rush, but Marks has enough of a dual-threat profile to be worth a look at plus money.
Parker Washington is the Jacksonville receiver I’m riding. He’s scored in three of five games and has four total touchdowns on the year.
Washington has become the clear top target in this offense, playing 77.5 percent of the offensive snaps and catching 22 of 35 targets for 352 yards. He’s also been making the kind of catches that swing games, including his touchdown in Week 5, helping Trevor Lawrence when the offense needs it most.
Jacksonville’s passing game is explosive - No. 3 in the NFL in EPA/Pass - and Washington is sitting at nearly 2/1 in a spot where no other Jaguars receiver has proven to be a steady target leader.
Nico Collins rounds out the group for Houston. He’s scored in two of his three appearances this season and has three touchdowns overall.
C.J. Stroud has looked his way 25 times, with Collins turning those targets into 19 catches for 249 yards.
The Jaguars have limited opponents to just four passing touchdowns in 2026, but they’ve also allowed the third-most passing yards in the league and sit outside the top-20 in yards per play allowed. Houston should be able to throw the ball effectively, and Collins has been a real touchdown threat for a long stretch, finding the end zone 21 times over the last three completed seasons.
At +165, he’s in the mix for a Texans offense dealing with several injuries.

Jaguars Just Sent A Clear Message On Brian Thomas Jr
The Jaguars have made their stance on Brian Thomas Jr. pretty clear, even with other NFL teams showing interest in the young receiver. Despite a limited role in the offense this season, Jacksonville is not entertaining trade talks for Thomas, according to Jonathan Jones of The Athletic, and the move says plenty about how the team views his place in the long-term plan.
For a roster trying to position itself as a legitimate Super Bowl contender, keeping a player with Thomas upside matters more than dangling him for short-term help. The decision leaves the Jaguars choosing continuity over a possible market-driven move, and it suggests they see enough value in holding onto him even if his volume has not yet matched the outside attention.

Texans Fans Will Notice A Different Broadcast Team In London
The Texans and Jaguars will take their matchup to Wembley Stadium in London for Week 6, giving the game a different kind of stage and a different kind of viewing experience for fans back home.

It will be the first NFL broadcast of the season for both Wischusen and Riddick, adding another small wrinkle to a morning matchup that already stands apart on the league calendar. [Read more 🡒]
Jaguars Rookie Receiver Is Earning A Bigger Role For One Clear Reason
Josh Cameron has already done enough in his first five games to get Jacksonvilles coaching staff paying closer attention. The sixth-round pick has caught eight of 12 targets for 117 yards and two touchdowns, while also chipping in on special teams, and offensive coordinator Grant Udinski has been quick to point to more than just the box score. What has stood out is the rookies physical tools and the speed with which he has started to grasp the Jaguars offense.
For a young receiver, that kind of trust usually comes from handling the details, and Cameron has given the staff reason to believe he can do more than line up in one spot and run a simple route tree. Udinski has praised Camerons ability to learn multiple receiver positions and make the subtle route adjustments that depend on defensive coverage, which is often the difference between staying on the field and watching from the sideline. In a room where versatility matters, that understanding could be the clear path to a bigger role. [Read more 🡒]
