2023 Jacksonville Jaguars season
The 2023 season is the Jacksonville Jaguars' 29th season in the National Football League, their third full season under the leadership of general manager Trent Baalke and their second under head coach Doug Pederson. They will attempt to improve upon their 9–8 record from the previous season, and make the playoffs for the second consecutive season, a feat they haven't achieved since they made the playoffs for four consecutive seasons from 1996 to 1999. They will also attempt to win their second consecutive divisional title, a feat they haven't achieved since winning the AFC Central in 1998 and 1999.
