Trevor Lawrence throws four TDs, Jaguars rout Browns 34-10 in season opener
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Sept. 13, 2026 — Trevor Lawrence threw four touchdown passes and the Jacksonville Jaguars defeated the Cleveland Browns 34-10 at EverBank Stadium on Sunday. The Jaguars improved to 1-0 while the Browns fell to 0-1. Cam Little added two field goals as Jacksonville built a commanding lead.
Jacksonville struck early and never relented, opening the scoring on a 30-yard scoring pass from Lawrence to Parker Washington and later adding a 4-yard touchdown to Josh Cameron in the first quarter. Lawrence also connected with Brenton Strange on a 14-yard touchdown in the second quarter as the Jaguars pushed ahead. Little converted a 47-yard field goal late in the second quarter to extend the lead.
In the third quarter, Lawrence found Jakobi Meyers on a 32-yard touchdown pass that further stretched the margin. Cleveland answered with a 26-yard field goal by Andre Szmyt, and Jacksonville countered with a 40-yard field goal by Little later in the period. Deshaun Watson connected with Denzel Boston on a 46-yard touchdown late in the fourth, but the score only trimmed the final margin.
The game marked the Jaguars’ return to meaningful action at EverBank Stadium after several months without a regular-season home game. Fans waited seven months to see Jacksonville play another meaningful game in Jacksonville, and the victory provided an emphatic start for the team’s offense. The Associated Press.

Lawrence’s four touchdown passes set the tone and allowed the Jaguars to maintain control throughout the game. Jacksonville converted long drives into points early and complemented the passing success with reliable kicking from Cam Little, whose two field goals helped widen the gap. Cleveland managed only a 26-yard field goal before Watson’s late 46-yard touchdown to Denzel Boston, which did not change the outcome. Jacksonville leaves Week 1 with momentum on offense and a solid foundation to build on.
