The Jacksonville Jaguars couldn't keep their win streak alive against the Seattle Seahawks. In Week 6, they took their first loss at EverBank Stadium during the 2025 NFL season, falling 20-12 to move to 4-2 on the year.
The Jaguars are still in good shape, but some familiar demons from past iterations of this team showed up against Seattle. The defense gave up some backbreaking big plays, while the offense continually moved backwards, killing any chance of building real momentum.
Still, there were some encouraging takeaways for Jacksonville in this game, at least from a fantasy perspective. Here's what we learned about their prospects moving forward after their loss to the Seahawks.
Despite the loss, Trevor Lawrence actually had a good statistical day. He finished the game with 258 yards on 27-of-42 passing with two touchdowns and no turnovers. He was able to spread the ball around, with 10 different players recording a catch for the Jacksonville Jaguars, seven of whom had two or more receptions.
However, he also took seven sacks for 44 yards and wasn't able to use his legs the way he did in Week 5's win over the Kansas City Chiefs, with just three rushes for nine yards against the Seattle Seahawks. This loss might be proof that the Jaguars are better off the less they have to lean on T-Law's arm in a game.
The Jaguars' offense may have struggled overall as a unit, but Brian Thomas Jr. reasserted himself as a top wideout in this game. He pulled down eight of his 10 targets for 90 yards and a touchdown, giving Jacksonville a counterpart to Jaxon Smith-Njigba. He nearly had another score on a jump ball that he reeled in after a bobble by a Seahawks DB and ran into the end zone, but it was called back due to a penalty.
It's clear that BTJ has re-emerged as Jacksonville's most reliable downfield weapon. His stock should only continue to rise as Trevor Lawrence and Head Coach Liam Coen find ways to get him the ball more.
Even with new trade acquisition Greg Newsome II only appearing in nine snaps for the Jaguars, the team elected to use Travis Hunter Jr. much more on offense than on defense versus the Seahawks. It didn't really pay off for them, as Jaxon Smith-Njigba had another incredible game while matched up with Jourdan Lewis and Montaric Brown. On the other side of the ball, Hunter Jr. finished with four catches for just 15 yards.
On the bright side, the second-overall pick played nearly 80 percent of the offensive snaps and was targeted seven times. He made a statement about how lethal he can be, both as a downfield threat and as a playmaker with the rock in his hands against the Chiefs. This is a good sign that the Jaguars intend to get him more involved in the offense moving forward.
