The Jacksonville Jaguars are facing a daunting final stretch of the 2026 NFL season, with the road looming large in their playoff push. Of their last four regular-season games, three will be played away from EverBank Stadium, including a critical Week 18 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.
Zooming out further, the challenge intensifies: four of the Jaguars' final six games are on the road, and from Week 9 onward, seven of their remaining contests will be played in hostile territory. This grueling travel schedule is partly due to ongoing renovations at EverBank Stadium, forcing the team to adapt on the fly.
But here's the silver lining for Jaguars fans: last season under head coach Liam Coen, Jacksonville proved they can thrive away from home, posting a strong 6-3 record on the road. That experience could be invaluable as they navigate this late-season gauntlet.
As any NFL fan knows, the final month-plus of the season is where division titles are won and playoff seeding is decided. The Jaguars found themselves in that exact position last year, and this season, they'll need to bank those critical wins primarily on the road. For a team that's shown resilience away from Jacksonville, this stretch could define their 2026 campaign—and test their mettle in the process.
