JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- For the Jacksonville Jaguars to repeat as AFC South champions in 2026, they will need to clear a few hurdles first.

One such hurdle is the first-year schedule the Jaguars will play this year, a changeup from playing a third-place schedule last season. It also has to be considered jus t how much of an advantage the Jaguars are set to lose by their home game vs. the Houston Texans being moved to a neutral site.

But there is one other hurdle the Jaguars will have to face when the schedule is released : their travel miles, with the Jaguars set to be one of the NFL's most-traveled teams this season.
