Jakobi Meyers News
Sunday, August 23, 8:42 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (hand) did not practice with the rest of the team in training camp on Sunday, according to Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union. Head coach Liam Coen said on Friday that Meyers jammed his right hand during a joint practice with the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday, and he was seen wearing a brace while sitting on the sidelines on Friday. The 29-year-old's injury doesn't appear to be very serious, but he did not play in Friday's preseason game against the Panthers and could continue to miss practice in the coming week before the preseason finale on Friday, Aug. 28, against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We would be surprised if Meyers' hand injury prevents him from being ready for Week 1 of the regular-season opener in early September. Both Parker Washington and Brian Thomas Jr. have been in the headlines for standout training camps, which has pushed Meyers' fantasy stock down going into his first full year in Jacksonville. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 52 wideout after he caught 42 of 61 targets for 483 yards and three touchdowns in nine games last year with the Jags after he was acquired from the Las Vegas Raiders at midseason.

Quentin Johnston News
Tuesday, August 18, 12:12 PM
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (lower body) is not expected to miss much, if any, practice time in training camp after suffering a lower-body injury on Tuesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. According to a source, Johnston is "totally fine." The 24-year-old appears to have avoided a significant injury, but the Chargers could elect to hold him out of Thursday's preseason contest against the San Francisco 49ers as a precaution. The former first-rounder from TCU in 2023 has struggled with drops and inconsistency in his first three years in the league, but he had 51 receptions for a career-high 735 receiving yards and scored eight touchdowns in 2025 for a second straight season in 14 regular-season games played. In a new offensive system run by coordinator Mike McDaniel, Johnston has an opportunity to continue to improve for fantasy managers as an excellent red-zone target due to his 6-foot-2, 208-pound frame. Fantasy managers should target Johnston as a WR3/flex with upside as he enters his fourth year in the NFL. RotoBaller has him ranked at No. 37 at his position.
