The Jacksonville Jaguars not only pulled out an unbelievable 19-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in London, but they also officially learned who their undisputed No. 1 wide receiver is.
Jaguars fourth-year wide receiver Parker Washington broke out with six catches for 124 yards and two touchdowns, including the go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter on fourth down.
There has been much debate about who the Jaguars top wide receiver is after the team traded for and paid veteran Jakobi Meyers last season.
Former first-round wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. is also just a couple of years removed from his breakout rookie season, when he had 87 catches for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns.
However, Washington seems to have officially separated himself from the rest now with 16 catches for 228 yards and two touchdowns this season.

Washington's rise to stardom has been quite impressive. He began his career as a sixth-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft out of Penn State, where he had 146 catches for 1,920 yards and 12 touchdowns from 2020-22.
Since then, he has continued to improve his production every year, and he and the Jaguars even engaged in contract extension talks this offseason. The two sides were ultimately unable to agree to terms, but it's safe to say Washington's big-time payday is coming in due time.
