Marvin Jones Jr. Fantasy

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. reeled in six passes for 55 yards and a touchdown in the team's 23-13 loss to the Denver Broncos. The bulk of Jones' production came on a beautiful 25-yard touchdown pass in which Trevor Lawrence dropped the ball just over the defender into Jones' hands in the back corner of the end zone. Overall, Jones was the lone bright spot in an otherwise brutal offensive performance, and he's clearly the most dependable option in Jacksonville's passing game right now. Jones' 11 targets dwarfed D.J. Chark's four, and Chark was second on the team in that category. The veteran can safely be considered a back-end WR3 going forward.

Jacksonville Jaguars Wide Receiver Marvin Jones Jr. projects as a WR4/flex option at home in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos. Jones had a nice Week 1 against the Texans, racking up 77 yards and finding the endzone on five catches, though he scored in garbage time when the game was well out of reach. The veteran wideout also appears to have a rapport with Trevor Lawrence, as the pair's chemistry was documented in camp and he was targeted nine times last week. Jones faces a more formidable, but beatable Broncos secondary in Week 2, and he's a solid flex option with a dash of upside.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. caught five passes for 77 yards and a touchdown against the Texans in a 37-21 Week 1 defeat. Jones was a favorite target for Trevor Lawrence in this one as he was targeted nine times in total, trailing only D.J. Chark Jr. (12) in that category. The rapport between Jones and Lawrence was well documented in training camp, and it appears to have carried over into regular-season action. In part due to losing game script, the Jaguars threw the ball 51 times in this one, and if the team continues to throw at a high rate Jones would certainly be a beneficiary. The steady veteran should continue to provide WR3/4 value going forward, and his consistent profile makes him a valuable fantasy asset in all 12+ team formats.
