Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) was a full participant at practice on Thursday and Friday and seems well recovered from the injury that held him out for three games. That doesn't necessarily mean he is in line for big game, however, as he hasn't been the most consistent fantasy option this season. The receiver room is also filled with competition still after the Jaguars traded for Jakobi Meyers to replace the injured Travis Hunter, and tight end Brenton Strange returned from injury. The Titans defense is very vulnerable, but game script should favor the rushing attack more. If Thomas Jr. can get involved early, he could have a good fantasy day, but that is a huge if in a huge Week 13 fantasy week.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) has no injury designation and is good to go for Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Thomas practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and is set to return in Week 13 after missing three straight games with a high-ankle injury suffered during Jacksonville's win over the Raiders in Week 9. The second-year wideout hasn't been able to replicate his numbers from his historic rookie season so far, recording 30 receptions (60 targets) for 420 yards and two total touchdowns in eight games. Thomas will also have more competition for targets in his return, with the Jaguars acquiring Jakobi Meyers at the trade deadline, Brenton Strange returning in Week 12, and the emergence of Parker Washington. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR30 in PPR leagues for Week 13 against the Titans.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice session, according to the team's official website. Thomas has missed three straight games after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Jacksonville's Week 9 win over the Raiders, and has yet to log a full practice since then. The second-year wideout is expected to return in Week 13 against the Titans, and will hope to finish the season strong after a disappointing first eight games. Thomas has just 30 receptions for 420 yards on 60 targets with two total touchdowns as he's struggled mightily with drops, tying Jerry Jeudy for the league lead with nine. Thomas will project as a WR3 in Week 13 against the Titans, assuming he is able to return.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders and has missed the last three games. However, Thomas is expected to make his return this weekend against the division-rival Tennessee Titans on Sunday, according to Andy Quach of SI.com. It's good news for the Jags' offense, but fantasy managers may want to be cautious about throwing him back into starting lineups immediately. Quach mentions that Jacksonville has been cautious in bringing players back from injury. The second-year wideout is also averaging just 3.8 catches for 52.5 yards per game, and he's scored just once after finding the end zone 10 times as a rookie. Rookie Travis Hunter (knee) is done for the year, but the team added Jakobi Meyers at the trade deadline. Meyers has made an immediate impact, catching 12 passes for 155 yards and a TD in three games, which could limit Thomas' role going forward when he finally returns from his ankle injury.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is missing a third straight game in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals due to a high-ankle sprain, but NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Thomas is getting close and is likely to return next week to face the division-rival Tennessee Titans. The 23-year-old practiced in a limited fashion all week, but the Jags are playing it safe and will hold the former first-rounder out again this weekend in Arizona. It's been a disappointing sophomore season for Thomas after he impressed with an 87-1,282-10 line in 17 games in his rookie campaign in 2024. Thomas has just 30 catches for 420 yards and one touchdown in eight games in 2025, but he should return to a key role in the passing attack when he's healthy, with first-round rookie Travis Hunter (knee) done for the year.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) has officially been ruled out for Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. Like last week, Thomas was able to practice in limited capacity every day this week, but still isn't quite ready to return to action and will miss his third straight game. The 23-year-old has been one of the more disappointing early-round picks in fantasy this season, producing 30 receptions (60 targets) for 420 yards and two total touchdowns in eight games before the injury, ranking as the WR42 in PPR points per game (10.7). Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington figure to see bumps in targets in his absence on Sunday against the Cardinals.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity again on Thursday. On the heels of a two-game absence, Thomas has now logged back-to-back limited sessions. While it's encouraging to see him get on the field in some capacity, he'd likely need to log a full practice session on Friday in order to enter the weekend without an injury designation. If he remains limited for a third day in a row, the team will likely list him as questionable ahead of Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. Thomas was underwhelming over the first nine weeks of the season, ranking as the overall WR39 in PPR leagues with 30 catches, 420 yards, and one touchdown through eight games. This is a major step backward from his rookie campaign in 2024, when he ranked as the WR4 with 10 touchdowns. Improvement could be on the way, though, as Thomas will have the opportunity to command more volume this week with Travis Hunter (knee) on IR. The 23-year-old's biggest competition for targets comes from Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington. He could certainly bounce back as a strong WR2 this week.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. The second-year receiver was able to get on the field as he works his way back from a two-game absence. The 23-year-old seems to be trending in the right direction for Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. Assuming he is able to suit up, Thomas should be a worthwhile fantasy starter. There's no denying that he was more bust than boom during the first half of the season, but this week's matchup against the Cardinals gives him a decent opportunity to get right if he plays. Arizona has allowed the 12th-most receptions and 14th-most receiving yards to wide receivers this year. Plus, he faces less competition now with Travis Hunter (knee) on injured reserve. Thomas does still have to compete for targets with Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington, but he has a better chance to establish himself as the top receiver of this offense going forward. Fantasy managers should give him another chance to earn their trust as a mid-range WR3 against the Cardinals.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said he's "optimistic" about wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) returning to face the Las Vegas Raiders on the road this Sunday in Week 12, according to Mia O'Brien. However, Coen also said, "I really don't know" regarding Thomas' status. Thomas was limited in practice all of last week, but he ended up missing a second straight game in the Week 11 win over the Los Angeles Chargers after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 9. The 23-year-old's Week 12 status will probably depend on whether he's able to upgrade to a full practice this week, so fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on his status. Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington have been operating as the team's top two receivers with Thomas out, with Dyami Brown and Tim Patrick having secondary roles. At best, the struggling Thomas should be considered as a WR3/flex in fantasy if he plays this weekend.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is officially inactive for the Week 11 game on Sunday against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers. Thomas suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 9 and will now miss a second straight game. The good news is that Thomas was able to practice this week (three limited showings), which should bode well for his chances of returning for a Week 12 game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Jags are also without rookie first-rounder Travis Hunter (knee) for the year, which means newcomer Jakobi Meyers, Parker Washington and Dyami Brown should operate as the team's top wideouts against the Bolts. Washington scored two touchdowns (one receiving, one on special teams) in last week's loss to the Houston Texans, and his elevated role makes him a prime WR4/flex option in PPR fantasy leagues.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is not expected to suit up for Sunday's home tilt with the Los Angeles Chargers. The LSU product has been battling an ankle injury for a few weeks now. Despite practicing in a limited fashion leading up to Week 11's contest, it appears that he'll miss his second consecutive game. If that comes to fruition, teammates Parker Washington, Tim Patrick, and Jakobi Meyers figure to operate in three-wide-receiver sets against the Bolts. Patrick ran ahead of Meyers last weekend, but that could change this Sunday as the latter becomes more comfortable in his new surroundings.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is currently listed as questionable for the upcoming Week 11 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Thomas is hopeful to get back on the field this weekend after sitting out last week's loss to the Houston Texans. Thomas was limited in practice all week due to a high-ankle sprain. If he plays, fantasy managers should view him as a WR2. Otherwise, Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington will likely lead the passing attack.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. The 23-year-old is trying to work his way back from a high-ankle sprain that caused him to miss Week 10. He has been significantly underwhelming during his second pro season, catching 30 passes for 420 yards and one touchdown through eight games. While the season-ending injury to Travis Hunter (knee) seemed like it could open the door for Thomas to get more involved, Jacksonville addressed that issue by trading for Jakobi Meyers. Parker Washington has also seen an increase in volume. As a result, Thomas remains an inconsistent fantasy option, even when he's healthy enough to play again. Managers should view him as a WR2 with a low floor.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) was on the practice field on Wednesday, according to Demetrius Harvey of Jaguars.com. Thomas suffered a low-grade high-ankle sprain in Week 9 and was held out of last week's loss to the Houston Texans after not practicing at all last week. The 23-year-old was most likely limited in his return on Wednesday, but his presence at practice means that he now has a chance to return this weekend versus the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. In Thomas' absence last Sunday, Parker Washington scored a receiving touchdown and also returned one for a TD on special teams, while newcomer Jakobi Meyers also got involved. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on the 23-year-old's status for the rest of the week. The former first-rounder has been in a sophomore slump, scoring just once in eight games after reaching the end zone 10 times as a rookie, and the addition of Meyers doesn't bode well for a rebound the rest of 2025.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Houston Texans, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Thomas suffered a low-grade high-ankle sprain in Jacksonville's Week 9 win over the Raiders, where he caught three of five targets for 55 yards. There was some optimism that Thomas would be able to suit up in Week 10, but the second-year wideout was unable to practice this week and could need a week or two to fully recover. The Jaguars are running thin at the wide receiver position with Thomas out and first-round rookie Travis Hunter (knee) on Injured Reserve. Recent trade acquisition Jakobi Meyers, along with Parker Washington, are likely to lead Jacksonville's passing game in a tough matchup against a stout Houston Texans defense in Week 10.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) was not seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday, according to Demetrius Harvey of Jaguars.com. If Thomas does not make it onto the field, it will be his second straight missed practice of the week after he picked up a low-grade high-ankle sprain in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The Jaguars said earlier this week that they felt the 23-year-old second-year pass catcher had a good chance to suit up this Sunday against the division-rival Houston Texans, but two straight DNPs suggest otherwise. The Jags also put first-rounder Travis Hunter (knee) on Injured Reserve, so they could be down to Parker Washington, Dyami Brown (concussion), and the newly acquired Jakobi Meyers at WR this weekend against a strong Texans defense. Thomas' Friday status will go a long way in determining whether he's active in Week 10.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) was not seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Wednesday, according to Demetrius Harvey of Jaguars.com. Thomas suffered a low-grade high-ankle sprain in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, but the team is optimistic he'll be able to play in Week 10 versus the division-rival Houston Texans. The Jaguars also placed rookie first-rounder Travis Hunter (knee) on Injured Reserve last week, so if Thomas is limited or unable to go this weekend, it will most likely make Parker Washington the top target of quarterback Trevor Lawrence. In addition to Thomas being hurt, Dyami Brown suffered a concussion last Sunday. In the wake of all of Jacksonville's receiver injuries, they acquired Jakobi Meyers from the Raiders on Tuesday. Meyers should eventually have a big role in the passing attack, but fantasy managers will want to temper expectations for him early on as he learns the playbook.
