Jones-Drew had 123 yards on 24 carries, becoming the first player to rush for 100 or more yards against the Jets this season.
In the 4th quarter, with the Jaguars facing 2nd-and-6 from the 10, Jones-Drew took a handoff up the middle and went to a knee instead of going in for the TD to give Jacksonville 1st-and-goal from the 1 with about 1:30 left on the clock. The clock kept ticking, setting up Josh Scobee’s 21-yard field goal that gave the Jaguars a 24-22 victory over the Jets as time expired.
“Sorry to my fantasy owners. I apologize. I had myself today. It was a tough call, but whatever it takes to get the victory, that’s what counts. They said get a close as you can and take a knee. I was looking for someone to tackle me.” |
