Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has been a strong addition to their wideout group this season. Meyers got off to a slow start with the Las Vegas Raiders, but he turned it around quickly in Jacksonville. The 29-year-old finished with nearly 500 yards during his nine games with his new team. The Jags clearly view Meyers as part of the future, with the two sides already agreeing on a long-term deal. The job isn't done yet, though, as Meyers will head into a tough matchup against the Buffalo Bills' defense during the Wild-Card round this Sunday. The Bills' defense has been elite in terms of yards allowed to wideouts this season. Targets should be there, with Meyers seeing six or more targets in eight straight games. The Bills' defense will likely limit his upside to more of the WR3 range in fantasy football.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers turned his season around following a mid-year trade from the Las Vegas Raiders. He posted double-digit fantasy points (full-PPR) in five of his first six games with the Jaguars, and he has at least eight points in each of his last seven contests. Since joining the Jaguars, he ranks as the overall WR16 in fantasy football. Meyers has clearly benefited from a high-volume role in Jacksonville's strong offense. This is a unit that is capable of moving the ball down the field, and Trevor Lawrence has distributed the ball well enough to support many different fantasy-relevant performances. For example, while Meyers has been the Jaguars' most consistent receiver since his trade, Parker Washington has been explosive in the last two weeks, and Brian Thomas Jr. and Brenton Strange have both played well. Meyers should feast in Week 18 against the Tennessee Titans, whose pass defense has been very disappointing this season. Tennessee has allowed the fourth-most receiving yards and fifth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. In his last game against the Titans, Meyers caught six passes for 90 yards and a touchdown. We wouldn't be surprised to see the 29-year-old enjoy similar success on Sunday, and we expect him to handle a heavy workload because Jacksonville is still fighting for the No. 1 seed in the AFC. As it stands, Meyers ranks as the overall WR21 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy football rankings for Week 18.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is among the safer options at wide receiver this week against the Indianapolis Colts. The Jaguars' offense is clicking, and Meyers has been the most consistently targeted option for Trevor Lawrence. He has had at least six targets in every game since Week 11 and has usually been able to muster at least a good chunk of yards or a touchdown. Against the Colts in Week 14, he earned his most targets of the season with the Jaguars, with 10, but only managed four catches for 39 yards, but salvaged his fantasy day with a touchdown. Given his consistent involvement with the offense, Meyers is a safe play in Week 17 for managers looking for someone reliable to start in their fantasy championship.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has momentum on his side heading into Sunday's Week 16 contest against the Denver Broncos. The 29-year-old has enjoyed quite the resurgence since being dealt from Las Vegas to Jacksonville midseason. In six games since the trade, he ranks as the overall WR12 in half-PPR leagues. He has posted double-digit fantasy points in each of the last five weeks, and he has scored a touchdown in three of his last four games. Meyers remains a strong WR2 option for fantasy football this week, but his range of outcomes is admittedly a little larger given the uncertainty surrounding his matchup. If Meyers faces off against Patrick Surtain II, his upside could be limited, and he'd have a lower floor. On the other hand, Surtain could take Brian Thomas Jr., leaving Riley Moss to cover Meyers. Moss has been tough in the red zone this year, but he's given up plenty of yardage, so if he's covering Meyers, the NC State product would instantly become a fringe top-12 fantasy receiver.
Dec 21, 2025 9:41 AM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers seems to be the primary benefactor of the Jaguars' offense clicking heading into Week 16. The team also just extended him to a three-year contract, so Meyers should be feeling good heading into a tough matchup with the Denver Broncos. Meyers seems especially useful in PPR given his skillset, which could come in extra handy this week, given the Broncos' elite pass rush. The Jaguars' offense as a whole should struggle compared to last week's beatdown of the New York Jets, which shouldn't limit Meyers too much. Fantasy managers should be happy starting Meyers as he comes in as RotoBaller's WR18 in Week 16.
Dec 20, 2025 12:00 PM EST
The Jacksonville Jaguars agreed to a three-year, $60 million contract extension for wide receiver Jakobi Meyers on Thursday that will tie him to the organization through the 2028 season, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The deal includes $40 million guaranteed. Meyers was scheduled to be a free agent after the 2025 season, but instead, the Jaguars will lock him up six weeks after acquiring him from the Las Vegas Raiders at the trade deadline. In the wake of rookie first-round two-way player Travis Hunter's (knee) season-ending injury, the 29-year-old Meyers immediately came in and took Jacksonville's offense to a level it had been lacking in the first half of the season. Since arriving, the Jags have gone 5-1, while Meyers has caught 27 of his 38 targets for 355 yards and three touchdowns in six games. Meyers has become quarterback Trevor Lawrence's top target, and together with Brian Thomas Jr., they present a tough one-two WR punch for opposing defenses.
Dec 18, 2025 7:06 PM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers was an excellent acquisition by the Jags at this year's trade deadline, as he's become their No. 1 wideout. In the last five weeks, Meyers is the WR12 in half-PPR scoring with 24 catches on 35 targets for 314 yards and three touchdowns. The 29-year-old broke a three-game touchdown streak in Sunday's blowout victory over the New York Jets, but he still had a healthy five catches on seven targets for 71 yards. The week prior in the big win over the Indianapolis Colts, Meyers had double-digit targets for the third time all year and the first time since being traded from the Raiders to the Jaguars. Meyers has helped unlock Jacksonville's offense in the second half of the season. He went from averaging 50.3 yards per game and 7.2 yards per target in seven contests with the Raiders to 59.2 yards per game and 9.3 yards per target in six games with the Jags. Meyers will have a big test in Week 16 against the Broncos defense, but he'll still have WR2 upside in fantasy.
Dec 17, 2025 10:23 PM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has become a popular target in this offense in recent weeks. Meyers currently carries a three-game touchdown streak into the Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets. Last week, Meyers saw 10 targets, which was his most since Week 2. The Jags are clearly leaning on him in the passing game, and that should continue this weekend. Meyers figures to continue having success against an average Jets secondary. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Meyers to offer WR2 upside for this home contest.
Dec 14, 2025 8:42 AM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has excelled since being acquired from the Las Vegas Raiders at this year's trade deadline. Meyers has scored in three straight games and has totaled 22 receptions for 284 yards on 31 targets in five games with the team. The Jaguars are 4-1 since trading for him, with the 29-year-old wideout emerging as Trevor Lawrence's favorite target. Brian Thomas Jr.'s return in Week 13 hasn't slowed Meyers down, as he's compiled 16 targets in the past two weeks. Meyers should remain productive on Sunday against a New York Jets defense that has struggled all season. Fantasy managers can confidently fire him up as a solid WR2 option in Week 15.
Dec 13, 2025 8:00 PM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is looking to score a touchdown in his fourth straight game with a robust matchup against the Jets. Meyers is fully integrated into the offense following the midseason trade from Las Vegas, clearing an 80% snap count in each of his last three games. The return of Brian Thomas Jr. to the field didn't cut into his role either, as Meyers just logged 10 targets last week. The Jets' opponents don't often log high passing volume, but they allow a top-10 touchdown rate with zero interceptions and a bottom-three QB hit tally. Fantasy managers can be encouraged by the low pressure and a consolidated target share at the top of Jacksonville's food chain, which all comes together to make Meyers a top-20 WR in RotoBaller's Week 15 rankings.
Dec 13, 2025 2:43 AM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers continued his recent success with another solid performance during Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. It was unclear if Meyers' role in the offense could be reduced with Brian Thomas Jr. back in the mix this weekend. Clearly not, Meyers hauled in all six of his targets for 90 yards and scored a touchdown in the win. Over the last three games, Meyers has finished with 50 receiving yards or more and scored two touchdowns. He'll remain fantasy relevant for next week's matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.
Nov 30, 2025 6:27 PM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has been solid since being acquired by the Jaguars back in Week 10. He's always been a reliable short-field option, making him useful in PPR leagues, but he found the endzone last week to help him produce a good fantasy outing. Over the last two games, he has nine receptions on 12 targets for 114 yards and a touchdown. However, with Brian Thomas Jr. returning from injury, it is unclear what Meyers's role will be moving forward. Considering Thomas Jr. is more of a deep threat, there's a possibility it won't change that much. That makes Meyers a solid flex play with limited upside against a weak Titans defense. Especially in PPR leagues, Meyers is a fine play in Week 13.
Nov 29, 2025 11:05 AM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers should once again have an increased role in the passing game this weekend. Fellow wideout Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for the third straight week. Last week, Meyers hauled in five of his six targets for 64 yards in the win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The assumption is that his role will continue to grow as he keeps learning the playbook. Meyers should be able to at least give fantasy managers WR3 value for this upcoming matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
Nov 22, 2025 6:53 PM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers will operate atop the depth chart for the second week in a row after NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) will not play in Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. Meyers made his Jaguars debut last week after being acquired from the Las Vegas Raiders at the trade deadline. He caught three passes for 41 yards despite playing a modest 44 percent of the offensive snaps. As Meyers gets more comfortable in his new offense, he'll play more snaps and earn more targets. We should see his involvement trend upward this Sunday, especially with Thomas out of the picture. Meyers continues to rank as a decent WR3/flex play.
Nov 16, 2025 9:33 AM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers had three catches for 41 yards in Week 10 versus the Texans. Although he wasn't a safe fantasy option against a tough Houston defense, especially with it being his first game on a new team, fantasy managers were still hoping for more due to the absence of Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle). With a poor showing in the rear-view mirror, Meyers will look to get things going in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Thomas is questionable for that one. If he doesn't suit up, Meyers has a chance to see more than the 27 offensive snaps he received in Week 10. Granted, he still wouldn't be an ideal fantasy option. However, the upside is there, so he should at least draw consideration from those with nowhere else to turn.
Nov 15, 2025 12:08 AM EST
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers walks into an immediate opportunity to dominate the target share as they face the Houston Texans in Week 10. Meyers joins a wide receiver room absent of Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) and Travis Hunter (knee). The Jaguars are averaging just 215.3 yards per game through the air, but Meyers' biggest competition for targets this week is 23-year-old Parker Washington. Trevor Lawrence and the offense face a tough test against a Texans defense that is allowing just 177.5 passing yards per game and ranks fourth with nine interceptions on the year. Meyers is a must-start option this week, as Lawrence tests out his new weapon on day one.
Nov 6, 2025 2:09 PM EST
Jaguars reporter Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union said on a recent radio appearance that the price the team paid to acquire wide receiver Jakobi Meyers indicates that the team views him as more than just a rental. Jacksonville traded fourth and sixth-round draft picks to the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for Meyers on Tuesday. Meyers will provide immediate aid to a Jaguars wide receiver room that will be without Travis Hunter (knee) for at least three more games and could be without both Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) and Dyami Brown (concussion) in Week 10. Meyers recorded 33 catches for 352 yards and zero touchdowns on 49 targets across seven games for Las Vegas this season. If O'Halloran is correct and Jacksonville plans to keep Meyers beyond 2025, his presence could be a slight negative for the dynasty value of Hunter and Thomas Jr.
Nov 5, 2025 11:49 AM EST
The Jacksonville Jaguars are acquiring wide receiver Jakobi Meyers from the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for fourth and sixth-round draft picks, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Meyers has recorded 33 receptions for 352 yards and zero touchdowns on 49 targets across seven games for Las Vegas so far this season. He'll provide a much-needed talent infusion to the Jaguars' wide receiver room, which lost Travis Hunter (knee) to Injured Reserve before Week 9 and Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) to an ankle injury during their Week 9 win. Meyers should slot in as either the WR1 or WR2 in Jacksonville, pending the health status of Thomas Jr. Meyers seemingly fell out of favor in recent weeks in Las Vegas, as he has not recorded more than four catches or 39 receiving yards in a game since Week 2. The 28-year-old was vocal about his desire to be traded away from the Raiders, so he may be rejuvenated by a fresh start in Jacksonville.
Nov 4, 2025 11:43 AM EST
According to Dianna Russini of The Athletic, the Las Vegas Raiders have "set a high price" on wide receiver Jakobi Meyers. It's no secret that the wideout wants to be traded. As expected, several teams have inquired about his availability in the trade market, with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills seemingly the clubs with the most interest. It's unknown exactly what the Raiders are looking for in return. However, it appears there's still a chance he could be moved before the trade deadline. Meyers was targeted 22 times in the first two games of the 2025 campaign. Since then, he's seen 23 targets in his last four appearances while missing the Week 7 meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs. All things considered, Meyers may actually benefit from a change of scenery, considering Geno Smith has struggled.
Nov 1, 2025 10:15 PM EST
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee) is an interesting flex play heading into Week 9 despite looming trade rumors. Meyers has turned 43 targets into 29 receptions for 329 yards despite missing the team's Week 7 matchup with the Chiefs. The disgruntled receiver offers flex upside this week as the Raiders take on a banged-up Jaguars secondary. Meyers has one last game before the trade deadline, and could send a message to head coaches across the league with a big game Sunday. Look for the team to keep Meyers involved early, as the team tries to maximize their return on a potential deal on Tuesday.
