The NFL returned as they opened up the preseason with an exhibition between the Las Vegas Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars in the Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio. With many of the starters left on the bench for this head-to-head, it was predictably not a super competitive affair and the Raiders were able to run away with a 27-11 victory.
Las Vegas scored on its first three possessions and were able to get out to a comfortable lead as Jacksonville — who held out the bulk of their notable offensive players including quarterback Trevor Lawrence — was stagnant on that side of the ball. Raiders starter Jarrett Stidham finished with 96 yards passing while completing 8 of his 15 throws. Meanwhile, Jake Luton, who got the start of the Jags, completed 10-of-17 for 94 yards.
Obrigado por nos lembrar, cara da placa: HOJE É DIA DE NFL! 🙌
Às 21h, @Jaguars e @Raiders abrem a pré-temporada com o Hall of Fame Game. 🏈
Como é bom ter futebol americano novamente!
