Brian Thomas Jr. News
Monday, September 21, 6:10 AM
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.

Malik Nabers News
Friday, September 25, 12:50 PM
New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (shoulder) is off the injury report and good to go for his team's Week 3 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, per Dan Salomone of Giants.com. Nabers suffered a shoulder injury during New York's Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, but he was able to finish the game and now appears to be ready for Week 3. Across his first two games of 2026, Nabers has recorded seven catches for 70 yards on 13 targets. The Giants lost starting quarterback Jaxson Dart (knee) to a season-ending knee injury in Week 2, but the team has a quality backup in veteran signal-caller Jameis Winston, who has supported fantasy production from his receivers in the past. Now that he's officially cleared to play, Nabers profiles as a solid WR2 option for fantasy managers.
