I felt good Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. As we got to Sunday, I was like, &#8216;Let&#8217;s go.&#8217; I was on phone calls with my trainer. I was with my mom this morning. I&#8217;m like, &#8216;It&#8217;s going to be a big game.&#8217; I was really excited to make those plays.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Said Meyers, &#8220;You&#8217;ve seen it all week in practice. He knew what the game called for and he went out there and showed it. I&#8217;m not surprised at all. He&#8217;s been preparing for this week all week, honestly, and it looked good because of that.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Coen said because the Jaguars expected Broncos All-Pro cornerback Patrick Surtain II to focus on either wide receiver&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":618791,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2026],"tags":[7,130,90167,134,1642,131,62949,36829,133,8466,314],"class_list":{"0":"post-618790","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-front-page-headline","10":"tag-jacksonville-jaguars-at-denver-broncos-2025-reg-16","11":"tag-john-oehser","12":"tag-liam-coen","13":"tag-news-front-page-headline","14":"tag-news-game-that-was","15":"tag-news-gameday","16":"tag-news-jaguars-news","17":"tag-parker-washington","18":"tag-trevor-lawrence"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115761355754103749","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/618790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=618790"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/618790\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/618791"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=618790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=618790"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=618790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
