Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Brian Thomas Jr.

Sunday, November 16, 11:35 AM

During a 10-minute meeting with Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, wide receiver A.J. Brown vowed that he'll stop complaining about the offense on social media, according to Sal Paolantonio of ESPN. Brown's meeting with Lurie was described as "highly unusual" and occurred during Thursday's practice after security chief Dom DiSandro ushered him to the owner. Brown has made his displeasure known this season, most recently complaining about the state of the Eagles' offense during a live stream on Twitch. While Brown vowed to stop complaining publicly, Lurie told him that he didn't need to apologize for his actions. The receiver explained that he "just wants to be a part of the offense and is frustrated," and the two hugged as the meeting ended. The 28-year-old has been underwhelming with 31 catches, 408 yards, and three touchdowns this season, but his frustration has stopped short of a trade request. In fact, he remains under contract through 2029, though it's possible that Philadelphia could bring his name up in trade talks next offseason. For now, though, he'll remain with the Eagles, looking to bounce back from a 10-week span that saw him rank as the overall WR39 in fantasy football. His first opportunity to get back on track will come on Sunday in Week 11 against the Detroit Lions.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is officially inactive for the Week 11 game on Sunday against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers. Thomas suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 9 and will now miss a second straight game. The good news is that Thomas was able to practice this week (three limited showings), which should bode well for his chances of returning for a Week 12 game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Jags are also without rookie first-rounder Travis Hunter (knee) for the year, which means newcomer Jakobi Meyers, Parker Washington and Dyami Brown should operate as the team's top wideouts against the Bolts. Washington scored two touchdowns (one receiving, one on special teams) in last week's loss to the Houston Texans, and his elevated role makes him a prime WR4/flex option in PPR fantasy leagues.
