Jaguars overcome turnovers to edge reeling Cardinals in OT

Trevor Lawrence passed for 256 yards and three touchdowns while overcoming three interceptions and four turnovers, and Cam Little's 52-yard field goal on the first possession of overtime gave the Jacksonville Jaguars a 27-24 victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday in Phoenix.

Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who threw for 317 yards and a touchdown, advanced the Cardinals to the Jaguars' 42-yard line on their final drive before throwing two incompletions, the last on a deep ball into double coverage intended for Xavier Weaver.

Jacksonville (7-4) moved to within one game of the AFC South-leading Indianapolis Colts (8-3) with its second straight win after the Colts lost at Kansas City.

The Jaguars passed Buffalo for the sixth spot in the AFC wild card standings and are one game ahead of Pittsburgh, Houston and Kansas City for the final AFC wild card berth. They have two division games remaining against both the Colts and the Texans

Lawrence, who was 18 of 30, gave the Jaguars a 24-21 lead with 3:47 remaining on a 9-yard pass to Parker Washington, after Brissett put the Cardinals ahead on a 39-yard touchdown pass to Greg Dortch with 7:12 left.

Brissett led the Cardinals on an eight-play, 69-yard drive to set up Chad Ryland's game-tying 29-yard field goal with three seconds remaining in regulation.

That drive was set up when the Jaguars went for it on fourth-and-one from the Cardinals' 19 on their previous series rather than attempt a short field goal, but Lawrence's pass into the end zone was incomplete.

Travis Etienne had 86 yards rushing and scored on a 15-yard pass on the Jaguars' first drive of the game, which covered 97 yards.

Michael Wilson had 10 receptions for 118 yards and Trey McBride had nine for 79 yards for the Cardinals.

Cardinals rookie defensive tackle Walter Nolen III scored his first touchdown on a fumble recovery when Lawrence was sacked.

The Cardinals (3-8) have lost three in a row and eight of their last nine.

Brissett was knocked out of the game with 3:29 remaining in the third quarter after being hit at the sideline by Jaguars' safety Kevin Lloyd while scrambling to avoid pressure. Lloyd was initially penalized for a late hit, but the call was overturned after replay review.

Brissett was evaluated in the injury tent but returned on the next series. Kedon Slovis ran two plays.
