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

Sunday, September 13, 1:29 PM

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.

Bhayshul Tuten the Clear Top Back Against Browns

Sunday, September 13, 1:20 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten played well in his first game as the full-time starter, finishing with 15 carries for 66 yards and a 22-yard catch. The passing game and defense were the primary reasons for the Jaguars dominating the Browns, but Tuten was involved just enough to muster a respectable fantasy outing. What is most reassuring is the fact that he finished with nine more carries than Chris Rodriguez Jr., who was considered a potential roadblock to Tuten getting high volume. The rookie combine standout will look to build on this performance in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos.
