Jaguars Win on 57‑Yard Walk‑Off Field Goal After One Second Is Restored

This game shows how special teams and emergency personnel can decide outcomes, testing both clubs' depth.

Overview

  • Sunday in London the Jacksonville Jaguars beat the Philadelphia Eagles 19-17 when Cam Little drilled a 57-yard field goal as time expired to complete a dramatic comeback.
  • Game officials put one second back on the clock after it initially appeared to have run out, and Ameer Abdullah's 53-yard kickoff return reached the Philadelphia 39-yard line to set up the kick.
  • Jacksonville completed the play despite losing regular long snapper Ross Matiscik early, with defensive tackle DaVon Hamilton stepping in to snap the game-winning kick after producing several high snaps earlier.
  • The finish produced wide social- and cross-sport reaction, including teammate Trevor Lawrence's postgame 'They can’t ice you!' to Little and public praise from WNBA star Caitlin Clark.
  • The win moves Jacksonville to 4-1 and atop the AFC South but leaves questions about lineup depth after left tackle Anton Harrison's carting off and a parade of penalties, while Philadelphia must address injuries and late-game execution.
