Brian Thomas

Brian Thomas Jr. caught 6-of-9 targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Jacksonville’s Week 4 loss to the Texans.

The rookie continues to be well-involved in the Jaguars offense, and caught the team’s initial score on a goal-line play-action pass. Thomas Jr. added a near-touchdown on a double move where he beat Kamari Lassiter, but Trevor Lawrence overthrew him. It’s hard to trust Thomas Jr. only because of Lawrence’s sloppy accuracy, but he is earning plenty of targets and is in WR3/FLEX consideration going forward — or at least until Evan Engram returns from his hamstring injury. Jacksonville will take on the Colts in Week 5.
