What fans need to know as Jaguars face Titans with AFC South title at stake

It’s the final regular-season game for the Jacksonville Jaguars but not necessarily the final game at EverBank Stadium this season.

That depends on the outcome on Jan. 4 when the Jaguars (12-4) host the Tennessee Titans (3-13), with a 1 p.m. kickoff (FOX). If the Jaguars win, they will clinch the AFC South title and get a home playoff game on either Jan. 10 or 11.

A loss will drop the Jaguars to a wild card and they will start the playoffs on the road.

Key stat: the Jaguars have never lost a home game in the final week of the season, going 9-0 in those situations

Jaguars advise fans to arrive early

Given the changes in parking lots and entry to the stadium because of ongoing construction on the Stadium of the Future, plus heavier traffic, the Jaguars are advising fans to arrive early and exhibit patience – especially since the playoff implications are likely to result in the biggest crowd of the regular season.

To help, stadium lots will open at 9 a.m., the Gate 4 “Super Gate” and Gates 1 and 8 open at 10 a.m. and all other gates and stadium areas will open at 11 a.m.

Mobile parking passes should be downloaded and saved before arriving.

Navigating around EverBank Stadium

Guests in general admission seating should access the main concourse for full 360-degree circulation around the stadium because the plaza level is no longer continuous from gate to gate. Some gate entries have been adjusted so ticket holders should review the recommended gate entry on their mobile ticket for each game to access the most direct route to a seat location. Guests should exit at the gate closest to their transportation.

Construction is shown at EverBank Stadium, Friday, Dec. 19, 2025, in Jacksonville, Fla. The entertainment venue space will take at least a two-year pause while the Stadium of the Future is being built.

Mobility assistance will be offered to those who request it near each stadium entry gate. Signage and Guest Services will be available to guide ticket holders. Teal golf carts will be traveling around the stadium to pick up fans in Lots S, X, Z, the Fairgrounds and Metropolitan Park.

Uniform combination: The Prowlers, again

The Jaguars will wear their throwback “Prowling Jaguar” uniforms for the fourth time this season. They have worn them for each home AFC South game, and the Monday night game against Kansas City.

The Jaguars are 4-0 in the throwbacks. They beat the Colts last year and have won divisional games against Houston and Indianapolis in the Prowlers.

Fan Entertainment Zone

Located on the southwest plaza level adjacent to Daily’s Place, the Fan Entertainment Zone (FEZ), in partnership with Wolfson’s Children’s, has more than 20 activations to explore. Due to Stadium of the Future construction and limited plaza access, fans can experience the activities by entering the stadium only through Gates 4 and 7 or via the main concourse level to the escalators near the Bud Light Zone to the plaza level beginning three hours prior to each home game.

Jaguars fans can get free posters

The first 300 fans at the Duuuval Designs Space in the Fan Entertainment Center can get free limited-edition game day posters from Florida artists.

This week’s poster comes from Jacksonville-based artist Eric Rajiv. In honor of the game’s fan appreciation theme, the head of the jaguar is built entirely from fan images, while the background of the poster is constructed from recycled magazines and gameday programs.

The eyes of the jaguar are a rendering of the stadium lights and signage opponents will encounter at each endzone. Embracing the ‘It’s About Us’ mindset, the poster echoes the energy and camaraderie felt by fans at a Jaguars home game.

First ‘Duuuval’

The first “Duuuval!” will be delivered by former Jaguars offensive tackle Leon Searcy, who played in Jacksonville from 1996-2000 and was part of the team’s four consecutive playoff seasons and a trip to the AFC Championship game.

Community champion of the game

Terri Florio, the Executive Director of the MaliVai Washington Youth Foundation, is the Community Champion of the game and will be recognized by the Jaguars in the third quarter. Founded in 1997, the MWYF serves 500 low-income youth after-school and during the summer each year, providing them with opportunities to excel in the classroom and their community.

Game day Patriotism

The National Anthem will be performed by Stephen Quinn, a Middleburg native and country recording artist who lives in Nashville. His newest single “Down Here,” reflects on growing up in Florida.

Priscilla Lefors, a student from the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind, will interpret the Anthem for the hearing impaired.

The Colors will be presented by members of the Naval Station Mayport Honor Guard. The American flag will be held by 100 Jaguars season-ticket holders.

SFC Daisy Balbuena is the Bell Ringer of the game. Stationed at Fort Liberty, N.C., Balbuena serves as a Drone Operator with the 2nd Multi-Domain Combat Team.

Teach Five/Corporal Rufus McClure will be honored as the Veteran of the Game. He was drafted into the U.S. Army during World War II and volunteered as a paratrooper, serving with the 82nd Airborne Division in Europe, including support of the liberation of the Wöbbelin concentration camp. His military honors include the American Theater Service Medal, European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal with Bronze Service Star, Good Conduct Medal, and the World War II Victory Medal. He was an educator at The Bolles School for 55 years.

Today’s flyover will be conducted by Patrol Squadron FIVE (VP-5) and Patrol Squadron EIGHT (VP-8). Both squadrons are part of the Command Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing ELEVEN at Naval Air Station Jacksonville. Both squadrons have recently returned from a six-month deployment.
