Jakobi Meyers Offers Upside as Jaguars Head to London

Tuesday, October 6, 6:01 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has been the team's second WR this season and is in a pair of favorable matchups the next two weeks. He has actually played more snaps than any other WR for the Jags, although Parker Washington is getting more targets. Meyers has two touchdowns in his four games this season and has 10 catches for 97 yards in the last two weeks in wins over the Patriots and Bengals. He can be a deep-league FLEX option in the next two weeks as the Jaguars face the Eagles and the Texans in their two games in London. Both the Eagles and Texans rank in the top 10 in most fantasy points allowed to receivers this season, and Meyers is involved enough to bring upside from the waiver wire if you need short-term help at the position due to bye weeks or injuries.

Jaylen Waddle Facing Hot Chargers Pass Defense

Saturday, October 10, 5:43 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jaylen Waddle's up-and-down season continued in Week 4, when he finished a loss to the San Francisco 49ers with a solid day consisting of five receptions for 35 yards and a touchdown. It was nowhere near his breakout Week 2 performance. Still, it was a solid bounce-back effort after a slow Week 3. Now, Waddle will go up against a hot Los Angeles Chargers pass defense, which did a nice job limiting 2025 Offensive Player of the Year, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, to just five receptions for 76 yards while holding him out of the end zone this past week. Waddle is RotoBaller's 21st-ranked wide receiver and is projected to score 11 fantasy points against the Chargers in Week 5.
