What to know

The Jaguars, like the Raiders, will be coming into this matchup refreshed after a bye week. Jacksonville opened the season strong, winning four of its first five games, but stumbled against the Rams with a 35-7 loss in London before the bye. Despite the defeat, second overall pick Travis Hunter delivered a performance that showcased the talent that made him a top draft selection. The receiver/cornerback played a season-high 67 offensive snaps and posted career highs in receptions (eight) and receiving yards (101) while registering his first career touchdown. On defense, he saw limited action on just 14 plays, his third-lowest total of the season.

While the Silver and Black will also be looking to flip the script after a shutout loss to the Chiefs in Week 7, history isn't on their side. Over the last 10 seasons, the Raiders are 3-7 in games following their bye week.
