Jakobi Meyers News
Saturday, October 3, 11:24 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is trending up in fantasy football. After catching just three passes through the first two weeks, Meyers exploded with seven catches, 64 yards, and one touchdown last Sunday against his old team, the New England Patriots. Parker Washington is still the top Jaguars receiver in fantasy football, but Meyers' big performance in Week 3 has cemented him as a strong WR3/flex option going forward. Meyers ranks first in the NFL in target separation against man coverage this year, and he also ranks first in quarterback rating when targeted. The underlying metrics suggest that Meyers should have a much bigger role than he has occupied this season, so we don't think that his big Week 3 was any sort of fluke. This week, he'll also benefit from a matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, whose pass defense has been nothing special. Cincinnati ranks near the middle of the league with the 15th-fewest fantasy points allowed to wide receivers in 2026.

Rome Odunze News
Saturday, October 3, 6:33 AM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze is a volatile flex option in this Sunday's home matchup against the New York Jets. Odunze has put a preseason calf issue behind him, but still faces hurdles in the way of targets. Heading into the year, it seemed that this offense would funnel opportunities through Odunze, fellow wideout Luther Burden III, and tight end Colston Loveland in the passing game. Quarterback Caleb Williams' (hamstring) injury aside, it's veteran wide receiver Kalif Raymond standing in the way of Odunze's increased production. As it stands, the third-year pass catcher leads his cohorts in snaps. However, he's very clearly the main downfield threat in the attack, making easier looks harder to come by. Odunze is a talented young receiver, but his current standing in an offense loaded with weapons leaves something to be desired. Despite a tough spot in the Jets this weekend, the 24-year-old lands favorably as RotoBaller's PPR WR38.
