Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Brian Thomas Jr.

Friday, September 26, 4:01 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is off to a slow start in 2025, catching just 10 of his 21 targets for 134 scoreless yards through three games. He will look to find the end zone for the first time all season in a Week 4 road matchup against the Detroit Lions. Detroit has been generous to opposing wideouts thus far, allowing the ninth-most fantasy points per game to the position. That includes big games to Jayden Reed (three catches for 45 yards and a touchdown), Rome Odunze (7-128-2), and Rashod Bateman (5-63-1). Jeudy hasn't been what fantasy gamers were hoping for when they selected him in drafts, but he has a chance to have a nice showing in Week 4, making him a solid flex/WR4 this weekend.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (wrist) doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of the Week 4 matchup with the 49ers. Thomas has been battling a wrist injury. Fortunately, he logged full practices throughout the week. Thomas had a stellar rookie year, amassing 87 catches (133 targets) for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns. However, he struggled in the Jags' first three games of the 2025 campaign, catching only seven passes for 115 yards. With that in mind, Thomas has been targeted 25 times this season, so it's obvious he remains a go-to option for quarterback Trevor Lawrence. While the 22-year-old still can't be trusted fully from a fantasy standpoint, there's really not a scenario where managers can feel comfortable keeping him out of the starting lineup, especially considering his upside. It's also worth noting that Dyami Brown (shoulder) may not play.
