LONDON \u2013 Senior writer John Oehser examines five key storylines from the Jaguars’ 19-17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in a 2026 Week 5 game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, United Kingdom, Sunday<\/p>\n
1.D-Ham \u2026 the man. DaVon Hamilton<\/a> doesn’t practice long-snapping much, and he’s in no hurry to do it for real again any time soon. But he snapped well enough under pressure Sunday to be a major storyline in one of the Jaguars’ most memorable victories in recent memory. “You can’t make it up,” quarterback Trevor Lawrence<\/a> said of Hamilton’s role Sunday. “It’s crazy.” Hamilton, one of the NFL’s best nose tackles, long-snapped Sunday after All-Pro long snapper Ross Matiscik sustained a first-quarter shoulder injury. “Whatever I can do, do it to help our team,” Hamilton said. Hamilton snapped eight times Sunday, including on kicker Cam Little<\/a>‘s 57-yard game-winning field goal as time expired. “I wasn’t that nervous for that one,” Hamilton said. “It just is what it is, got to do a job, get it done. Head Coach Liam Coen<\/a> said Hamilton, who also snapped for Matiscik in a road victory over the Tennessee Titans last season, practices long snapping “a few snaps a week, maybe” \u2013 doing so mostly in walkthrough situations. “It’s not in a live setting,” Coen said, adding of Hamilton, “We trust him to do it.” Said Hamilton, “Hopefully, I don’t have to do it next week and we can move on. But it was fun.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LONDON \u2013 Senior writer John Oehser examines five key storylines from the Jaguars’ 19-17 victory over the Philadelphia…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":426464,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[881,116,118,117,885,880,884,883,166048],"class_list":["post-426463","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-jacksonville","tag-front-page-headline","tag-jacksonville","tag-jacksonville-headlines","tag-jacksonville-news","tag-john-oehser","tag-news-front-page-headline","tag-news-gameday","tag-news-jaguars-news","tag-philadelphia-eagles-at-jacksonville-jaguars-2026-reg-5"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/426463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=426463"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/426463\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/426464"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=426463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=426463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=426463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
