Cameron, a polarizing wide receiver prospect who lasted until the sixth round, has delivered as a strong argument against draft doubters. He has eight catches for 117 yards with sure hands and willingness to block, and has been impressive enough to earn snaps over Brian Thomas Jr. He's an even bigger weapon on special teams, averaging 27.2 yards on nine kick returns (245 yards, long of 46) with five special teams tackles, and would have had a return touchdown if not for a questionable holding call.

if the Jaguars had an injury to Jakobi Meyers, do you think they’d feel Ok knowing BTJ can step in? Or do you think they’d panic knowing he just hasn’t played well for 2 years? I can’t wrap my brain around this at all. If there’s an injury they’re playing Josh Cameron, man.

With a Brian Thomas Jr. trade looking likely before the deadline, we saw in Week 6 the first signs of what might be an increase in Travis Hunter's WR reps 👀 Broke down what we saw from Hunter last week: - How it lined up with his prospect and Year 1 charting - Why rookie WR Josh Cameron's presence is key to all of this - Use on the key routes in this offense where Hunter is also at his best Watch the conversation with @​JamesDKoh at the link below 👇

Jaguars (vs Texans): Brian Thomas Jr. was benched in the 2nd half after two drops and played 0 2nd-half snaps RBs: Bhayshul Tuten: 55% opp share, 59% route share, 0% of i10 rush att, 14% of 2min RB snaps, 33% 3rd down snap share More of a split than the past few weeks, but CRod was running well. He scored 2 TDs and had 1 called back on a questionable holding call. I think he's a high-end RB2 for now - he's getting much more involved in the pass game. Chris Rodriguez Jr.: 41% opp share, 14% ro...

PositiveUsageOct 17, 2026FantasyPros Articles
Cameron, a Jaguars rookie, has averaged only 2.4 targets and 6.3 PPR fantasy points per game over five weeks but scored at least 6.2 fantasy points in every game except Week 2 against Denver. He had a career-high six targets last week, matching the combined total of Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas Jr. Despite limited targets, Cameron has averaged 2.64 fantasy points per target and has a 25% touchdown rate, ranking second on the team with two receiving scores. Week 6 matchup against Houston is favorable; Texans have surrendered 41 fantasy points per game to wide receivers (second-most in NFL) and have given up a receiving touchdown and at least 21 fantasy points to opposing slot receivers in two of their past three matchups. Cameron ran 61.5% of his routes from the slot last week.

Cameron has averaged only 2.4 targets and 6.3 PPR fantasy points per game over the first five weeks but scored at least 6.2 fantasy points in all but one game. Last week he had a career-high six targets, matching Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas Jr.'s combined total. Despite limited targets, the rookie has made an impact with 2.64 fantasy points per target and a 25% touchdown rate, ranking second on the team with two receiving scores. Houston has surrendered 41 fantasy points per game to wide receivers (second-most in NFL) and has given up a receiving touchdown and at least 21 fantasy points to opposing slot receivers twice in their past three matchups. Cameron ran 61.5% of his routes from the slot last week. Additionally, the Jaguars' offense is rolling while teammate Brian Thomas Jr. looks lost (8, 17, and zero receiving yards in last three games on six total targets). The Jags remain in London for the second straight game while Houston has to travel across the pond, and one team always shows up flat in international games—likely the Texans with their second-worst-ranked defense in points allowed to wide receivers.

Josh Cameron is worth stashing if roster space allows; his per-route metrics are exceptional: 24% targets per route run, 2.85 yards per route run, 14.6% first downs per route run on a small sample. He continues to run about a third of the routes, but if Brian Thomas were moved, Cameron could become fully unlocked. He had four targets, three catches, 43 yards on 13 routes, plus an opening kickoff return touchdown called back due to penalty. The source describes him as an explosive playmaker.
