WATCH: Jags score on longest play in NFL history versus Cardinals

The Jacksonville Jaguars completed the longest play in NFL history on Sunday afternoon versus the Arizona Cardinals. Wide receiver Jamal Agnew returned a 68-yard field goal attempt 109 yards to the endzone to cap the first half.

It’s not the only 109-yard score in the record books, but it is now tied for the longest play in NFL.

Ironically, the Cardinals and kicker Matt Prater were going for the record for longest field goal at 68 yards.

Prater kicked the ball right down the middle, but into the arms of fifth-year vet Jamal Agnew instead of through the uprights.

Agnew is fresh off of a 102-yard kick return last week versus the Denver Broncos. He broke two tackles and caught a nice block to take it all 109 yards.

Jaguars nail offseason free agent signing

The Jacksonville Jaguars signed Jamal Agnew as a free agent this offseason. Hopes were high that he’d be a dangerous weapon on special teams. He’s been that through three weeks, creating some of the best highlights of the season so far for Urban Meyer’s squad.

Agnew, a University of San Diego alum, only started playing receiver a season ago. He began his NFL career as a cornerback for the Detroit Lions. They drafted him in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft.

As a Lion, the 5-foot-10 athlete had five returns for touchdowns – four punt returns and one kickoff return. He had two punt returns for touchdowns as a rookie in 2017, helping him reach the AP All-Pro first team.

Agnew’s deal with the Jaguars is for three years, $14,250,000, including a $3,500,000 signing bonus.

At UCSD, Agnew was a two-time team defensive MVP and a one-time first-team All-Pioneer League defender. In 44 career games, he totaled 148 tackles (118 solo), with 12.5 tackles for loss, 1 fumble recovery and 11 interceptions.
