Jakobi Meyers Limited With Thumb Injury on Wednesday

Wednesday, September 16, 2:19 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (thumb) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a thumb injury. It is an injury Meyers has been dealing with since late in the preseason, but it did not stop him from playing in the Week 1 season-opening win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. The 29-year-old only caught two passes in the 34-10 blowout win, but he made them count, going for 40 yards and a touchdown to begin the 2026 season. Meyers will almost certainly upgrade to a full practice in the next couple of days and be good to go for a Week 2 tilt on the road against the Denver Broncos. As long as he is healthy, Meyers will remain a key piece of the Jaguars' passing attack, although volume could be an issue all year while sharing targets with both Parker Washington and Brian Thomas Jr. (shoulder). Meyers will once again be in more of the WR4/flex range for Week 2 against the Broncos.

Tetairoa McMillan Looking To Have Bigger Role in Week 2

Thursday, September 17, 6:54 AM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan could see an increased role in Week 2 with Jalen Coker's injury status still questionable. Coker had a breakout Week 1 against the Bears, while McMillan caught five passes for 75 yards and no touchdowns as Coker was the star receiver. After the game on Monday, Coker was seen in a walking boot and is nursing an ankle injury. He is questionable to play against the Falcons and was limited in Wednesday's practice. Should Coker be limited or forced to miss Week 2's contest, McMillan would get a huge boost as the No. 1 target for quarterback Bryce Young. How the split plays out between the two talented receivers remains to be seen but in Week 1 it was in favor of Coker. Look for a bounce back of sorts from McMillan this week.
