Travis Hunter scored his first NFL touchdown, but it was only a consolation as the Los Angeles Rams overcame jet lag to claim a 35-7 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley.
The Rams only arrived in the United Kingdom on Saturday morning, the day before the final game of the season in London, which was the 43rd regular season game played in the English capital.
They were the last team to arrive for an NFL game in London, while the Jaguars, who also entered the game with a 4-2 record, had been here since Tuesday.
But the Rams took a 21-0 halftime lead before cruising through the second half, with veteran receiver Davante Adams scoring a hat-trick of touchdowns as the Rams finished with five total.
Hunter helped the Jaguars avoid a shutout with nine minutes remaining, helping cut the score to 28-7, but that didn’t dull the shine of an impressive victory for the Rams, who are expected to be in Super Bowl contention again this season after winning the NFL championship game for the last time in 2022.
