Listed as questionable with hamstring and ankle injuries; was a limited practice participant Wednesday and Thursday coming out of a Week 7 bye, then missed Friday's practice, putting his Sunday availability into question. Travis Hunter, Brian Thomas, and Josh Cameron could all take on more WR snaps if Meyers doesn't play against the Colts.PositiveProjectionOct 29, 2026
Meyers has established himself as Jacksonville's clear No. 2 WR but shows inconsistent target volume with four games of four or fewer targets mixed with two games of eight and 10 pass-game opportunities; Brenton Strange has actually worked as the No. 2 overall pass-game target, and the Jaguars are likely to build a lead against Indianapolis, which will limit Meyers' overall scoring opportunities.NegativeUsageOct 29, 2026
Meyers has four games with four or fewer targets sprinkled between two games with eight and 10 pass-game opportunities, showing high volatility in target volume.NegativeUsageOct 19, 2026
Meyers' playing time has been steady, but his targets have fluctuated wildly (weekly totals in reverse chronology: 10, 3, 4, 8, 1, 2). The source notes his first two weeks can be discounted because he was coming back from a hand/finger injury and limited in practice. He's now up to a 16% target share in a good offense, suggesting he'll be useful for helping fantasy teams deal with byes and injuries. However, it's unclear if Brian Thomas being out of the mix will help, given that Thomas hasn't been doing much and could be partially replaced by more Hunter snaps/targets. Meyers also had a drop in this game.NegativeProjectionOct 14, 2026
Ranked WR39 for Week 6 vs. HOU in London. Meyers is always viable to score a touchdown but has gained more than 40 yards just once this season. As the WR44 in PPR points per game, Meyers is more of a meh PPR-WR4 FLEX option than anything.NegativeProjectionOct 14, 2026

Jakobi Meyers played 84% of snaps and ran 77% of routes but was targeted just three times (8% share), combining with Brian Thomas for only six targets on 59 combined routes. He has been targeted on just 14% of routes, indicating limited involvement in the Jaguars' passing game.NegativeRoleOct 12, 2026
May still be a solid player, but there may simply not be enough opportunity for him to be a reliable fantasy option in the Jaguars' middle-of-the-field-focused offense.PositiveInjuryOct 9, 2026
Jakobi Meyers cleared to play this week after missing time with a thumb injury, returning to availability for Week 5.PositiveProjectionOct 8, 2026
The source projects Meyers to catch a TD from Trevor Lawrence in Week 5 against Philadelphia.NegativeProjectionOct 7, 2026
Meyers being the PPR WR36 this season is the most Jakobi Meyers thing ever; bigger days could be ahead if anyone out there ever forces the Jaguars into a back-and-forth shootout, but for now it's tough to get too optimistic about the ceiling here with fewer than five targets in all but one game this season.NegativeProjectionOct 6, 2026
Meyers is ranked 58th in the Week 5 value meter for the JAC vs. PHI matchup.PositiveUsageOct 5, 2026
Played 83% of snaps but saw just four targets; despite a good matchup, couldn't replicate Week 3 success and remains well below 20% TPRR for the year, indicating limited target efficiency.PositiveUsageOct 5, 2026
Meyers played 83% of snaps but saw just four targets. This looked like a good matchup for him but he couldn't make an impact, catching just 3 for 33 yards on 20 routes (83% route share, 15% target share).PositiveValueOct 1, 2026
Meyers is recommended as a streaming pick for shallow leagues (under 65% rostered) in Week 4 at Cincinnati.PositiveUsageOct 1, 2026
Jakobi Meyers is a fan pick this week. The Jaguars opened the season clearly trying to get the ball to Parker and BTJ, with Meyers getting the most snaps but minimal targets. That changed last week in part due to BTJ's Week 1 injury and Week 2 stinker, and Meyers delivered with increased target volume.NegativeMatchupOct 1, 2026
Meyers has a slight fade for Week 4 against Cincinnati, which ranks tied-sixth in receiving yards per game allowed to WR2s, presenting a difficult matchup.PositiveRoleOct 1, 2026
Meyers has two touchdowns through three weeks, indicating he's one of the primary targets in the Jaguars' red zone offense alongside Parker Washington and Josh Cameron.NegativeMatchupSep 30, 2026
Meyers (30% slot rate) is more likely to see ace Bengals CB DJ Turner than Parker Washington (46%), but in a matchup featuring the week's highest game total, the answer to which Jags receiver might just be 'yes'.PositiveRoleSep 30, 2026
Meyers has emerged as the clear No. 2 pass-game option in the ascending Trevor Lawrence-Liam Coen passing attack and always seems to be on the other end of some of T-Law's best throws; his 7-64-1 receiving line in Week 3 demonstrated fantasy upside worth chasing despite only three total targets in Weeks 1-2.PositiveValueSep 28, 2026
Put up 7-64-1 on eight targets in Week 3, finally getting some pass volume after seeing just three targets on 48 routes through Week 2. The source notes this felt like a clear shift with Meyers being prioritized over Brian Thomas, and while that doesn't mean it'll be the same every week, Meyers does have a track record of reliability unlike BTJ.PositiveInjurySep 25, 2026
Cleared to play this week after missing the previous game with a thumb injury; available for Week 3 fantasy lineups.NegativeUsageSep 23, 2026
Meyers has seen declining targets with four, two, and one targets in his last three games; he has caught all three targets for 68 yards and a TD this season, but the downward trend is concerning.NegativeUsageSep 23, 2026
Target volume has declined sharply with four, two and one targets in his last three games; however, he has caught all three targets for 68 yards and a TD this season, showing perfect catch rate on limited volume.NegativeUsageSep 21, 2026

Meyers caught four of eight targets for 45 scoreless yards against Denver last season. While he is clearly an asset to the Jaguars offense, it has been the Parker Washington show more weeks than not dating to the end of last season.NegativeRoleSep 16, 2026

Meyers saw only two targets but one was a TD and he led the team with 76% route share. Prior to the fourth quarter, Meyers took 90% of snaps in 11 personnel and 80% in 12 personnel, leading Jacksonville WRs in both marks. The source says Meyers figures to see far more targets in the coming weeks, especially if Thomas' shoulder injury proves limiting.NegativeRoleSep 14, 2026

Signed a three-year, $60 million extension with the Jaguars last December to presumably continue to be the adult in this talented room; as much as fantasy nerds want Brian Thomas Jr. and Parker Washington to lead the way, Meyers is firmly in play to work as this offense's most-productive receiver.NegativeValueAug 21, 2026
Jakobi Meyers is ranked 81 on ESPN but has a significant negative delta (-25.0) compared to other platforms, indicating he is substantially overvalued on ESPN relative to industry ADP.NegativeValueAug 14, 2026
Meyers is part of the Jaguars' crowded receiver room but receives less attention than Parker Washington, Brian Thomas Jr., or Travis Hunter. Matt Harmon notes that Jakobi Meyers guys exist but quietly go about their business, much like Meyers himself. The Jaguars' target distribution is uncertain, and it's unlikely Trevor Lawrence will support upward of six targets.NegativeValueAug 12, 2026
