NFL: Jacksonville 20, Atlanta 17

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Aug. 10 (UPI) -- Pierson Prioleau intercepted D.J. Shockley in the final second Saturday to enable the Jacksonville Jaguars to hold on for a 20-17 pre-season win over Atlanta.

Atlanta got the ball back with 3:14 remaining and Shockley marched the Falcons to the five-yard line. Instead of attempting the game-tying field goal, the Falcons passed on third-and-goal.
