The move gives Houston a fresh look at the position as it tries to string together consecutive wins. Jacksonville, meanwhile, has its own roster tweak to account for, bringing in a new long snapper ahead of the trip overseas.\n\nBoth AFC South teams know these games carry extra weight beyond the standings, given the division history between them. Analysts and prediction panels have been weighing in on who holds the edge in London, with Houston's backers pointing to momentum and Jacksonville's supporters leaning on home-continent... well, away-continent familiarity with international games.\n\nThe game is being treated as a key early measuring stick for both franchises as they jockey for position in a competitive division. Kickoff details and broadcast information have been circulating as fans on both sides of the ocean prepare to tune in for the Wembley showdown.","published_at":"2026-10-18T05:50:08.332287+00:00","source_count":3,"written_from":[{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"Texans vs. Jaguars in London: Kickoff time at Wembley, Marvin Harrison Jr.’s debut","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7695164/2026/10/18/texans-jaguars-nfl-london-wembly-tv-time-marvin-harrison-jr/"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Houston Texans vs. Jacksonville Jaguars predictions: Who will win AFC South showdown in London?","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/houston-texans-vs-jacksonville-jaguars-183221675.html"},{"outlet":"CBS Sports","publisher":"CBS Sports","title":"Texans vs. Jaguars prediction: Marvin Harrison Jr. makes Houston debut in London","url":"https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/texans-vs-jaguars-prediction-where-to-watch-london/"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Prediction For Jaguars' AFC South Battle With the Houston Texans","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/prediction-jaguars-afc-south-battle-045631222.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://static01.nyt.com/athletic/uploads/wp/2026/10/16005119/GettyImages-2253064755-scaled.jpg","credit":"The Athletic","width":2560},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
