MATCHUP
The Broncos (2-5) and Jaguars (2-5) both enter this Week 8 game at London’s Wembley Stadium hoping to end four-game skids. Denver is expected to have starting quarterback Russell Wilson back in the starting lineup after he missed the previous game, and he’ll hope to continue to improve the chemistry in the passing game with wide receivers Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy and KJ Hamler. Against a Jacksonville pass rush that includes 2022 first-overall pick Travon Walker and 2019 Pro Bowler Josh Allen, Wilson will have to make decisions quickly.
On the other side of the ball, fans will be treated to a great matchup between another former first-overall pick in quarterback Trevor Lawrence as he goes against rising star cornerback Pat Surtain II. Surtain got an interception off Lawrence a year ago when they were both rookies, but a more experienced Lawrence could be a tougher test. Jacksonville’s array of weapons — including running back Travis Etienne and receivers Christian Kirk and Zay Jones — are a talented group, as well.
INJURY UPDATE
The Broncos ruled out five players on Friday: CB Essang Bassey (hamstring), OLB Baron Browning (hip), WR Tyrie Cleveland (groin), T Cameron Fleming (knee) and safety Caden Sterns (hip). Sterns was placed on injured reserve later on Friday, and on Saturday, safety P.J. Locke was added to the injury report with a hamstring injury and is listed questionable.
Jacksonville ruled out three players for non-injury-related reasons: S Tyree Gillespie, DL Adam Gotsis and CB Tevaughn Campbell.
