NFL standings 2022: Jaguars tumble to third in AFC South with loss

The Jacksonville Jaguars’ brief reign at the top of the AFC South ended Sunday with a 13-6 loss to the previously winless Houston Texans.

To make a bad day even worse for the Jaguars, Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz threw an interception in the final seconds to give the Tennessee Titans a 21-17 win. On Thursday, the Indianapolis Colts beat the Denver Broncos in overtime, 12-9.

After Week 5, the race in the AFC South looks like this:

  1. Tennessee Titans: 3-2 (1-0 in division)
  2. Indianapolis Colts: 2-2-1 (0-2-1 in division)
  3. Jacksonville Jaguars: 2-3 (1-1 in division)
  4. Houston Texans: 1-3-1 (1-0-1 in division)

The Jaguars have a chance to climb back to second next Sunday if they can pick up a road win against the Colts in Week 6. The Titans have a bye and will sit at 3-2 and in first place in the division until at least Week 7.

The last place Texans also have a bye and will stay in fourth even if the Jaguars lose next week.
