Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is "locked in as a starter" as training camp gets underway, according to Tashan Reed of The Athletic. Reed also notes that Meyers spent most of his time in OTAs working from the slot. The 28-year-old has been a consistent producer across his two seasons in Las Vegas. He took over as the team's number one receiver after the Raiders traded Davante Adams early in the 2024 season and posted career highs in catches (87) and receiving yards (1,027). Meyers will likely be new Raiders quarterback Geno Smith's second-favorite target behind star tight end Brock Bowers. He finished as the WR23 in PPR points-per-game in a similar role last season.

Jacksonville Jaguars two-way player Travis Hunter caught his first touchdown of training camp, a 5-yarder from Trevor Lawrence, as part of a successful practice at wide receiver on Tuesday. He took 24 snaps, his most in a single practice on offense so far, and "showed his considerable skills" as a receiver, according to Garry Smits of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union. Hunter, who won the Heisman Trophy at Colorado last season, entered the NFL as the second overall pick in this year's draft and will attempt to play both receiver and cornerback with the Jags. The 22-year-old hasn't manned both positions in one practice yet, but head coach Liam Coen has indicated that should change soon. At receiver, Hunter has the talent to serve as an excellent complement to Jaguars No. 1 Brian Thomas Jr. The question is how much playing time he'll get at the position during games. So far in camp, Hunter has tallied 79 snaps on offense and 47 on defense.
