No. 4 Jaguars player who had a huge role in the win vs. the Colts: Rayshawn Jenkins, S

Early in the game, safety Rayshawn Jenkins had an interception wiped because outside linebacker Travon Walker was offsides. Although it didn't count, he still celebrated with fans.

Later in the game, Jenkins had another chance to make a big play, and this time it counted. In a day in which the Jaguars got interceptions by the bunches, Jenkins stands out because he could've been frustrated after the first one was null. However, he kept playing and showed that the first one wasn't a mistake. Last year, he played a huge role for the Jags and he's doing it again in 2023.

No. 3 Jaguars player who had a huge role in the win vs. the Colts: Brandon McManus, K

There were doubts about Brandon McManus heading into the 2023 season. He had the second-lowest completion rate of his career last year and the Denver Broncos released him a couple months after free agency had started. The fact that he missed two field goals in Week 3 didn't help dispel the notion that his best days were behind him.

However, McManus bounced back after Week 3 and has nailed his seven attempts the last three games. In particular, he made three field goals against the Colts in Week 6. All of them were behind the 40-yard line. His last kick was probably the best one. Although the Jags lost 17 yards on the play before, McManus was unfazed and his field goal from the 51-yard line was good.
