In Week 2, the Cleveland Browns defeated the Jags with a final score of 18-13. Jacksonville never led in the loss.

Rookie Brian Thomas Jr. leads the team with 141 yards and one touchdown.

Buffalo will look to stay perfect in the young season. The Bills survived a scare in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. Going into the locker room, Buffalo trailed the Cardinals 17-10. Buffalo trailed by as many as 14 points in the comeback win.
In Week 2, it was all Bills as they went into Miami and took the Dolphins down 31-10.
