2021 Jacksonville Jaguars season

The 2021 season is the ongoing Jacksonville Jaguars' 27th season in the National Football League and their first under head coach Urban Meyer and general manager Trent Baalke. They also had the first overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, which they used to select Trevor Lawrence. The fifteen-game losing streak from the last season continued this season as the Jaguars started 0–5, but ended when the Jaguars topped the in-state rival Miami Dolphins 23–20 in London. To date, the 2020–21 Jaguars' 20-game losing streak is the third longest losing streak in NFL history, after the 1976–77 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (26) and 1942–45 Chicago Cardinals (29). With a 9–6 victory against the Buffalo Bills in Week 9, the Jaguars improved from their 1–15 record from the previous season. However, with a week 14 loss to the Tennessee Titans, the Jaguars were eliminated from postseason contention for the fourth consecutive year.
