In a tightly contested battle, the Jacksonville Jaguars topped the Cincinnati Bengals 21-13 in Week 4 of the 2026 season. The victory keeps the Jaguars competitive in the playoff race, while the Bengals will look to regroup after a disappointing home loss. Cincinnati's Joe Burrow showcased his passing prowess, leading all quarterbacks with 287 passing yards and a touchdown. Despite the loss, Burrow's connection with Ja'Marr Chase was a bright spot, as Chase racked up 131 receiving yards, keeping the Bengals in the game until the final whistle. For Jacksonville, Bhayshul Tuten contributed significantly on the ground with 54 rushing yards, helping to maintain offensive balance. Defensively, the Jaguars made key plays that shaped the outcome. Travis Hunter led the charge with six total tackles, while Jarrian Jones snagged an interception that halted a promising Bengals drive. The turning point came in the fourth quarter when Jacksonville's defense stepped up, forcing Cincinnati to settle for a field goal instead of a potential game-tying touchdown, allowing the Jaguars to hold on for the win.
