Per ESPN’s Michael DiRocco, EverBank Stadium is undergoing $1.4 billion in renovations. Though their games will be played in Orlando, DiRocco adds that the Jaguars will continue to use their Jacksonville-based facility.
Camping World Stadium is the home to the annual College Football Citrus Bowl, Pop-Tarts Bowl and Cure Bowl games. The UFC Knights played here from 1979 to 2006, as did the XFL’s Orlando Guardians before they folded.
It’s unanimous!

Jacksonville Jaguars Look To Build Off Surprising 2025 Season
Expectations were relatively low for the Jaguars heading into the 2025 season. But rookie head coach Liam Coen unlocked an underachieving offense and helped bolster a young defense.
The Jaguars won the AFC South with a 13-4 record, claiming just their second division title since 2018. Their season ended with a heartbreaking loss to the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card Round, but it was nonetheless a successful season in Duval County.
Jacksonville has a promising core led by Lawrence, Brian Thomas Jr., Travis Hunter, Parker Washington, Travon Walker and Josh Hines-Allen. Now, we wait and see if they can build off the 2025 season and take that next step forward.
