Jackson handed the ball off to Derrick Henry and the monstrous running back did the rest. Henry ran for 51 yards and got the ball to the Bengals’ 6-yard line. Tucker then nailed the 24-yard game-winning field goal.

Jackson was 26-of-42 passing for 348 yards. He threw four touchdown passes in the win. Isaiah Likely had two of the touchdown catches. Charlie Kolar and Rashod Bateman each had touchdown catches. Jackson ran for another 55 yards.
