Raiders lead Jaguars 13-7 at halftime

A game between two of the worst teams in the NFL who are in the running for the No. 1 overall pick has gone as expected.

The Raiders and Jaguars, who have a total of five wins between them, have combined for seven punts, nine penalties and two turnovers. At one point, the teams had four consecutive penalties — two on each team.

Las Vegas leads 13-7 at halftime.

Tank Bigsby scored the Jaguars’ touchdown on a 1-yard run to give his team a 7-0 lead in the first quarter before Alexander Mattison’s 1-yard run for the Raiders tied it only 55 seconds into the second quarter.

The Raiders have 182 yards but have had to settle for Daniel Carlson field goals of 49 and 37 yards after stalling at the Jacksonville 31 and the 19 respectively.

Raiders quarterback Aidan O’Connell has completed 10 of 17 passes for 155 yards and has rushed for 19 yards on three carries. Rookie tight end Brock Bowers has three catches for 45 yards.

Bigsby and tight end Brenton Strange both have lost a fumble for the Jaguars, with Strange’s coming with 9 seconds left in the first half after a 9-yard catch to the Las Vegas 34.

Mac Jones is 11-of-21 for 92 yards as the Jaguars have only 146 yards.
