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.

Travis Hunter News
Friday, September 25, 6:30 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter has barely seen the field as a wideout this season. The 23-year-old recorded one catch for eight yards in the season opener. Hunter did nothing in Week 2, but he played 10 percent of the offensive snaps during the loss to the Denver Broncos. It seems unlikely that Hunter is going to have a legitimate weekly role in this passing attack. The Jaguars have too many good options ahead of him, and Hunter gets lost in the shuffle. The Jaguars will likely have certain offensive packages for Hunter, but it won't be enough to start him in any fantasy leagues as a receiver.
