Washington: The Jacksonville Jaguars scored 10 points in the last four minutes of a 19-13 NFL win over Tennessee on Thursday, making slight headway in the weak AFC South division.
Rashad Greene’s 63-yard punt return for Jacksonville was followed by a short touchdown pass from Blake Bortles to Julius Thomas and Jason Myers added the extra point to give the Jaguars a 16-13 lead with 3:30 to play.
On Tennessee’s next play, Phillip Supernaw fumbled after making a catch and Davon House recovered for the Jaguars at the 29-yard line.
The Jaguars couldn’t move the ball and Myers added his fourth field goal to complete the scoring.
Tennessee had one last chance. Quarterback Marcus Mariota moved his team from their own 20 yard line to the Jaguars’ 23 yard line with five second left to play, but on the last play of the game, Jacksonville defensive end Andre Branch sacked Mariota.
With the win the Jaguars improved to 4-6 — not out of the hunt in a division in which Indianapolis and Houston are both 4-5 and Tennessee bring up the rear at 2-8.
The Titans and Jaguars will meet again in a rematch in 17 days in Nashville.
Indianapolis visit Atlanta on Sunday when Houston host the New York Jets.
