After two field goals, the Raiders finally scored their first touchdown early in the second quarter when Ameer Abdullah ran eight yards for the touchdown.

Then before halftime, quarterback Jarrett Stidham made a 12-yard run to score the middle finger and put Las Vegas up 20-0 halfway through the game.

Austin Walter added to the Raiders’ camp with a touchdown on an eight-yard run in the 4th quarter.

For the Jaguars, Nathan Cottrell scored the only late-game touchdown in a losing cause. He caught a five-yard pass from Kyle Sloter.
