Jakobi Meyers News
Monday, September 28, 9:37 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers caught a season-high seven passes for 64 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's blowout win over his former team, the Patriots. After a quiet start to the season in which he was targeted only three times in the first two weeks, Meyers appears to have emerged as the team's second receiver, coming up big in a game in which the defensive game plan limited Parker Washington to a season-low three catches. What was seen as one of the most wide-open receiver rooms coming into the season looks to have developed a clear hierarchy, with both Meyers and Washington holding a near-every-down role. Meanwhile, Brian Thomas Jr. has found himself in a rotation with sixth-round rookie Josh Cameron, and two-way player Travis Hunter continues to feature primarily on defense, seeing only five offensive snaps in Week 3. Meyers remains a flex-worthy play moving forward and should be viewed as a priority waiver add wherever available.

Rashee Rice News
Friday, October 2, 11:18 AM
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was listed on this week's injury report with the same knee injury he has been rehabbing all offseason, so nothing new to report on that front. He practiced fully in every practice session this week and is no longer listed on the report heading into the weekend. Rice is coming off his best game of the season in last week's 24-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Rice caught seven passes for 88 yards, leading the team in catches, yards, and targets by a large margin. Perhaps the easy matchup against Miami was just what Rice needed to have a get-right game. This week's matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders may not be so easy. The Raiders defense looks like one of the most improved units year over year, holding opposing offenses to low scoring outputs in two of three games this season. Rice will have to compete with tight end Travis Kelce for valuable targets while contending with the Las Vegas defensive backs. Rice is ranked WR17 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a fine WR2 in most leagues.
