Brian Thomas Jr. Now the Jaguars' No. 4 Receiver?

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. caught his only target for eight yards in the team's 35-6 blowout win over the New England Patriots on Sunday in Week 3, and Sports Illustrated's John Shipley writes that the Jaguars and Thomas "are going in different directions." Sunday was only the second game in Thomas' career where he recorded only one catch, and the first since Week 1 of last season. After averaging around 6.85 targets per game in the first seven games of 2025, which was before the Jakobi Meyers trade and the ascension of Parker Washington, Thomas averaged 5.14 targets over his final seven games of last year. Thomas is averaging just 4.33 targets per game through three weeks in 2026, a number that has been inflated by his nine-target game in the Week 2 loss to the Denver Broncos. He only played 23 snaps and ran 13 routes against New England in Week 3. Meanwhile, sixth-round rookie Josh Cameron played the same number of snaps and saw more targets despite running five fewer routes. Head coach Liam Coen explained that Thomas saw the field less due to the Jags going with more 12-personnel looks. It all amounts to Thomas' fantasy football value hitting rock bottom heading into the team's Week 4 contest on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Brian Thomas Jr. Has Just One Catch In Disappointing Effort

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. caught just one pass -- his only target of the day -- in a 35-6 win over the New England Patriots in Week 3. It was a disappointing day for Thomas' fantasy managers in a game that the Jaguars dominated. He played just 23 offensive snaps on Sunday, which was well behind Parker Washington (50) and Jakobi Meyers (50), while tying rookie Josh Cameron in reps. Cameron caught a 12-yard touchdown pass, while Washington, Meyers, and tight end Brenton Strange all tallied at least three receptions. Through three games, Thomas has totaled seven receptions for 88 yards. He is yet to find the end zone. Thomas looks to bounce back in a Week 4 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Brian Thomas Jr. a Risky Flex Against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. is a risky start in a Week 3 matchup against the New England Patriots. Given the nature of the Jaguars offense, BTJ will likely be covered by elite corner Christian Gonzalez for most of the game. He caught three passes for 40 yards on nine targets last week, with the inefficiency due to the combination of drops and being covered by Patrick Surtain. The higher target amount is promising, but BTJ only played 54% of snaps. That may have been because he left Week 1's game with a shoulder injury, but nonetheless, that is concerning if the pattern persists. Things could improve in the near future for BTJ, but for now he is best left on fantasy benches against the Patriots.

Brian Thomas Jr. Continues Sluggish Start

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. was once again a non-factor in the offense on Sunday. He finished with three receptions for 40 yards in the season opener, and he registered the same stat line on Sunday. Thomas was targeted eight times in Week 2, which is an encouraging sign for fantasy managers. The 23-year-old hasn't been able to capture the same magic from his 2024 rookie campaign, when he finished with 1,282 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns. Thomas is too talented to continue posting these kinds of games, but fantasy managers might want to treat him as a WR3 going forward.

Brian Thomas Jr. Looking to Overcome Week 1 Shoulder Injury

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (shoulder) was limited at practice all week but has no injury status heading into a Week 2 matchup with the Denver Broncos. The third-year pro will be looking to get more involved in the passing attack after just three catches for 40 yards in Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns. That production all came early in the game before his shoulder injury where he looked good to start the game. He was able to return late in the first half, but was vastly overshadowed by Parker Washington for most of the game. The Jaguars' passing attack was great against the Broncos last season in a 34-20 win, but BTJ was also overshadowed by Washington in that game, in which he had just two catches for 18 yards. Many fantasy managers are hoping he can return to his rookie-season form, but the more time that passes, the less likely it seems that will happen. For now, BTJ should be viewed as a risky flex option against the Broncos.

Brian Thomas Jr. Cleared to Play in Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (shoulder) was limited in practice all week but does not carry an injury designation on Friday and is cleared to play in Week 2 on Sunday against the hosting Denver Broncos, according to Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union. Thomas returned from a shoulder injury in the Week 1 season-opening blowout win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, but he finished with only three catches for 40 yards while seeing both Parker Washington and Jakobi Meyers find the end zone. There is bounce-back potential for the former first-rounder in 2026, but in Jacksonville's crowded WR room, Thomas is going to continue to be more of a WR4/flex option for fantasy managers, especially coming off a shoulder injury last week. In a late-season game in 2025 in Denver, Thomas did not do much, catching two of three targets for only 18 yards in a 34-20 victory.

Brian Thomas Jr. Remains Limited in Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (shoulder) was limited in practice again on Thursday with a shoulder injury, according to the team. Thomas suffered a shoulder injury in the Week 1 season-opening win over the Cleveland Browns, but he was able to return to the field. If he cannot upgrade to a full practice on Friday, he could go into the weekend with a questionable tag as the Jags get set to take on the hosting Denver Broncos in Week 2. Fellow wideout Jakobi Meyers (thumb) is also on the injury report for a second straight week and has put in two limited practices, but he should be good to play this weekend. The 23-year-old Thomas caught all three of his targets in Week 1 for 40 yards, but he was unable to find the end zone. In a tough upcoming matchup on the road against the Broncos, and with an injury designation, BTJ is shaping up as a shaky WR4/flex option for fantasy managers in the Jaguars' crowded WR room. Check back on Friday to see if Thomas carries a questionable tag into the weekend.

Brian Thomas Jr. Limited on Wednesday With Shoulder Injury

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, as head coach Liam Coen alluded to earlier this week. Thomas could be limited all week, but the Jaguars expect him to be available for a Week 2 showdown on the road against the Denver Broncos. Fellow wideout Jakobi Meyers (thumb) is also banged up, but he, too, is expected to be active on Sunday. Thomas injured his shoulder in the Week 1 season-opening blowout win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. He returned to the game, but the 23-year-old finished with only three receptions for 40 yards, while both Meyers and Parker Washington found the end zone. The former first-rounder from LSU had a fantastic 87-1,282-10 line as a rookie in 2024 before going through the sophomore slump last year. There was plenty of buzz for a 2026 bounce-back for Thomas this year, but he is off to a bad start with a minor injury, making him a shaky WR4/flex going into Week 2 in a crowded Jacksonville WR room.

Brian Thomas Jr. Not Expected to Miss Time

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (shoulder) briefly exited Sunday's blowout win over the Browns, but he was able to return to action, and head coach Liam Coen told reporters on Monday that he expects the third-year player to be active for a Week 2 matchup with the Broncos. Despite the shoulder injury, Thomas caught all three of his targets for 40 yards, and in a potential preview of things to come, quarterback Trevor Lawrence spread the ball around in a game he ended with four touchdowns and only five incompletions. Only Parker Washington earned more than three targets, establishing himself as the clear early-season Jaguars receiver to roster, but Thomas' big-play ability will keep him in the flex conversation as long as he remains healthy. UPDATE: Coen also said that Thomas will be limited in practice this week, per ESPN's Michael DiRocco.

Brian Thomas Jr. has Injury Scare, Limits Week 1 Outing

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. had an underwhelming fantasy outing in a 34-10 win over the Cleveland Browns. However, he did leave the game for a bit with a shoulder injury. Before the injury, BTJ had three catches for 40 yards, and that ended up being his final stat line even though he did return to the game. Given the blowout, he wasn't needed all that much, so it's hard to take away much from this game, other than Parker Washington looking like the top target in the Jacksonville offense. BTJ has a much tougher matchup, but will also be needed more in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos.
